EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisitely hand-colored engraving depicts the Yellow-backed Duiker, Cephalophus silvicultor, also known as the Bush Duiker or the Silvicultrix Duiker. The duiker is a small antelope native to the forests of Central and West Africa. The species is characterized by its distinctive yellow patch on its rump and the dark stripe that runs down its spine. The illustration was created by the renowned English natural history artist, Charles Hamilton Smith, based on a specimen at the Exeter Change in London. The engraving was executed by H. Kearsley and was published as part of Baron Cuvier's seminal work, "The Animal Kingdom," published by Whittaker in London in 1827. The Yellow-backed Duiker is a ruminant, meaning it belongs to the order Ruminantia, which includes cattle, sheep, goats, and other antelopes. Duikers are known for their excellent camouflage, allowing them to blend seamlessly into their forested habitats. They are also agile climbers, able to navigate the dense undergrowth with ease. The Yellow-backed Duiker is an important species in the forest ecosystem, serving as a prey animal for larger predators such as leopards and hyenas. They are also an important source of meat for local communities in Africa. Despite their small size, they play a significant role in maintaining the balance of the forest ecosystem. This beautiful engraving is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and scientific accuracy that characterized natural history illustration during the 19th century. It remains an enduring record of the natural world and a reminder of the rich biodiversity of Africa's forests.
