Metal Prints from Science Photo Library
Primate evolution
Primate evolution. Historical artwork of various primate skeletons, showing their evolutionary similarities and differences. The skeletons are (left to right): a gibbon (family Hylobatidae), an orangutan (Pongo pygmaeus), a chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes), a gorilla (Gorilla gorilla) and a human (Homo sapiens). All primates display certain physical characteristics such as opposable thumbs, big toes and forward-directed eyes with binocular vision. Man has a larger skull capacity than other primates as well as shorter arms and smaller feet and hands. The other primates (except the gibbon) are essentially four-footed. The gorilla is by far the most physically powerful primate, with a bigger frame and larger pelvis. Artwork from The Outline of Science (J. Arthur Thomson, 1922)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the fascinating journey of primate evolution. The historical artwork beautifully captures the similarities and differences between various primate skeletons, offering a glimpse into our shared ancestry. From left to right, we observe the graceful gibbon, followed by the majestic orangutan, intelligent chimpanzee, powerful gorilla, and finally, the pinnacle of evolution - Homo sapiens. Each primate exhibits distinct physical characteristics such as opposable thumbs, big toes for grasping branches or walking upright, and forward-directed eyes with binocular vision. However, it is evident that humans possess a larger skull capacity compared to other primates. Our species also stands out with shorter arms and smaller feet and hands. The artwork from "The Outline of Science" published in 1922 provides us with valuable insights into our biological history. It reminds us that all life on Earth is interconnected through an intricate web of evolutionary processes spanning millions of years. As we gaze upon this monochromatic masterpiece filled with bone structures meticulously depicted by skilled artists from over a century ago, we are reminded of our place in nature's grand tapestry. This image serves as a testament to both scientific curiosity and artistic expression while highlighting humanity's ongoing quest to understand our origins through the theory of evolution.
