EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving showcases the exquisite beauty of a Woolly Spider Monkey, an endangered species native to South America. Created by a German School artist in the 19th century, this print is now part of a private collection. The intricate details and lifelike portrayal of the monkey's features are truly remarkable. The skilled illustrator, K. Schleich, has captured every nuance of its fur, limbs, and expressive face with great precision. This artwork is taken from "A Die Säugethiere in Abbildungen nach der Natur mit Beschreibungen" a publication by Johann Christian Daniel von Schreber that documented various animal species between 1774 and 1855. Also known as Southern Muriqui or Brachyteles arachnoides, this particular monkey belongs to the genus Ateles. Its enchanting presence evokes both curiosity and admiration for these fascinating creatures that inhabit our natural world. Through this historical engraving, we are transported back in time to witness nature's wonders as seen through the eyes of talented artists who sought to capture their essence on paper. It serves as a reminder not only of the incredible diversity found within our planet's ecosystems but also of our responsibility to protect and preserve these fragile species for future generations. Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder allows us access to such extraordinary pieces that celebrate both artistry and scientific exploration while reminding us of our interconnectedness with all living beings on Earth.
