EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intriguing face of a Roe gadfly, an insect that bears an uncanny resemblance to that of a monkey. Taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, this image is part of a private collection. The photograph originates from "The Wonder Book of Science" published by Ward, Lock & Co. , Limited in London and Melbourne around 1935. In this illustration, we witness the unique features of the Roe gadfly's face as it mimics those found on our primate cousins. With its wide eyes and expressive mouth, one cannot help but be fascinated by this unexpected similarity between two seemingly unrelated creatures. As we delve into nature's wonders through science, such remarkable discoveries remind us of the intricate connections present within our diverse ecosystem. This photo serves as a testament to the incredible diversity found among wildlife animals and highlights how even insects can surprise us with their resemblances to other species. Let us marvel at this extraordinary snapshot that showcases both artistry and scientific curiosity. Through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform, we are granted access to explore these hidden gems from history while appreciating nature's boundless creativity.
