EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of a Hoses Langur, taken in 1897 by the talented artist Henry Ogg Forbes. The image is part of Lloyd's Natural History - Monkeys, Part V, a renowned book edited by R. Bowdler Sharpe and published by Edward Lloyd Limited in London during the same year. In this close-up shot, we see the majestic langur perched on a branch against an outdoor backdrop. Its wistful gaze evokes a sense of introspection and curiosity about its natural surroundings. The intricate details captured by Forbes highlight both the beauty and complexity of this old world monkey species. The monochromatic tones add depth to the portrait, emphasizing every contour and texture of its fur. This timeless piece serves as a testament to Forbes' artistic prowess and his dedication to capturing nature's wonders through his lens. As we admire this stunning print from our collection at The Print Collector, it transports us back to the 19th century when scientific exploration was at its peak. It reminds us of how literature merged with artistry to document Earth's diverse fauna for future generations. This remarkable photograph not only showcases one particular animal but also symbolizes mankind's eternal fascination with wildlife and our continuous quest for knowledge about the natural world around us.
