EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a fascinating collection of strange monkeys from the 19th century. The coloured engraving, created by an unknown German School artist, captures the intricate details and unique characteristics of these remarkable creatures. The image is part of "A Bilderbuch für Kinder" (Picture Book for Children), published between 1790 and 1830 by Friedrich Justin Bertuch, a renowned figure in children's literature during that era. This particular page features various species including the Grivet, Schacma, white-throated Sajou, large-headed Sai, Monk Saki, and other primates. Each monkey depicted in this artwork represents different mammalian traits and behaviors. From the Cercopithecus griseus to Papio comatus and Cebus hypoleucos to Pithecia monachus, this print offers a glimpse into the diverse world of primates. The black baboon stands out with its striking appearance while other monkeys exhibit their own distinctive features. The meticulous engravings bring these animals to life on paper, allowing viewers to appreciate their beauty and complexity. Preserved in a private collection today but made available through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform courtesy of ePurix Verlag Volker Christen; this historical artwork reminds us of our fascination with nature's wonders throughout time. It serves as both an educational tool for understanding animal diversity and an aesthetic delight for art enthusiasts who appreciate fine prints from centuries past.
