EDITORS COMMENTS
This copperplate engraving depicts the Angolan talapoin or southern talapoin monkey (Miopithecus talapoin), a primate native to the dense forests of Central and West Africa. The image was created by Madame Rousselet, wife of Tardieu, based on an illustration by Jacques de Seve for the renowned naturalist Georges-Louis Leclerc, Comte de Buffon's groundbreaking work, "Histoire Naturelle, Générale et Particulière," published by the Imprimerie Royale in Paris in 1766. The Angolan talapoin is a small, agile monkey with a distinctive coppery-red to orange-brown coat, contrasting white underparts, and a bushy, prehensile tail. They are arboreal creatures, spending most of their time in the trees, and are omnivorous, feeding on fruits, nuts, seeds, insects, and small vertebrates. The engraving captures the Angolan talapoin's expressive face, alert posture, and dexterous grip on a branch, highlighting their nimbleness and agility. The intricate details of the fur texture, facial features, and the naturalistic background are a testament to the skill and artistry of Madame Rousselet and Jacques de Seve. Buffon's "Histoire Naturelle" was a significant contribution to the scientific community, providing a comprehensive and accurate record of various plant and animal species from around the world. The inclusion of the Angolan talapoin in this work helped raise awareness and understanding of this fascinating primate and its habitat. Today, the Angolan talapoin remains an essential part of the biodiversity of the African continent, and efforts are underway to protect and conserve their populations in the wild.
