EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Barbary Ape" or "Macaque of Barbary" (Simia inuus), depicts the wild and intractable primate native to most parts of Africa, from Barbary to the Cape of Good Hope. Dating back to 1790, this historical image was created by the renowned English natural history illustrator, Thomas Bewick. The Barbary Ape, also known as the Barbary Macaque, is a species of Old World monkey that is distinctly different from its more docile counterparts. With its unruly appearance and mischievous demeanor, this ape has long intrigued Europeans, who have been fascinated by its wild and untamed nature. The Barbary Ape is shown in this print in its natural habitat, surrounded by the rugged terrain and rocky cliffs that are characteristic of its mountainous home. Its dark, shaggy fur contrasts sharply with its bright, intelligent eyes, which seem to gaze directly into the soul of the viewer. The ape's expression is one of curiosity and defiance, as if daring anyone to challenge its dominance. This print is a testament to the rich history of natural history illustration and the important role it played in documenting the natural world. It also serves as a reminder of the enduring fascination that humans have with these fascinating creatures, which continue to inhabit the forests and mountains of Africa to this day. Whether admired for their beauty, intelligence, or sheer audacity, the Barbary Apes of Africa have captured the imagination of generations, and this stunning print is a fitting tribute to their wild and intractable spirit.
