EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored steel engraving, titled "Ouistiti, Ours brun" (Common Marmoset, Callithrix jacchus, and Brown Bear, Ursus arctos, with Bees), is an exquisite example of natural history illustration from the 19th century. The image, created by Adolph Fries after an original illustration by Felix-Edouard Guerin-Meneville for his "Dictionnaire Pittoresque d'Histoire Naturelle" (Picturesque Dictionary of Natural History), published in Paris between 1834 and 1839, showcases the intriguing juxtaposition of two distinct and seemingly unrelated species: a Common Marmoset, Callithrix jacchus, and a Brown Bear, Ursus arctos. The Marmoset, a small New World monkey, is depicted perched on a tree branch, clutching a honeycomb with bees buzzing around it. Marmosets are known for their agility and dexterity, and their diet includes a significant amount of honey and other sweet substances, making their association with bees quite fitting. In stark contrast, the Brown Bear, one of the largest and most powerful bears in the world, is shown standing on its hind legs, reaching for the Marmoset's honeycomb with its long claws. Bears are omnivores, but their diet primarily consists of vegetation, with occasional forays into eating meat. The inclusion of the Marmoset and bees in this scene adds an intriguing layer of complexity to the image, highlighting the interconnectedness of various species in the natural world. The meticulous hand-coloring and intricate steel engraving techniques used in this print bring the subjects to life, capturing their unique textures and details with remarkable accuracy. This beautiful and intriguing image is not only a testament to the skill of its creators but also a fascinating glimpse into the natural history of the past.
