EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enchanting beauty of a Mona Monkey, captured in 1860 by an anonymous German artist. The colour lithograph, now part of a private collection, emanates vibrancy and detail that bring this magnificent creature to life. The Mona Monkey is depicted with remarkable accuracy and precision, showcasing its distinctive features such as its long tail and expressive eyes. This particular species, known scientifically as Cercopithecus mona or Macaca nemestrina, is native to West Africa and can be found in lush rainforests. The artwork originates from "A Bilder-Atlas zur wissenschaftlich-populären Naturgeschichte der Säugetiere in ihren sämtlichen Hauptformen" published in 1860 by Leopold Joseph Fitzinger. This publication aimed to provide a comprehensive understanding of mammals through stunning illustrations like this one. The monkey's playful nature shines through the illustration, capturing our hearts with its mischievous grin. Its presence evokes curiosity about the diverse world of primates and their intricate behaviors. As we gaze upon this timeless image, we are reminded of the delicate balance between humanity and nature. It serves as a reminder to cherish these incredible creatures who share our planet while inspiring us to protect their habitats for generations to come. Bridgeman Images has preserved this extraordinary piece of art history for all to admire—a testament to the enduring power of visual storytelling across time and cultures.
