EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisitely hand-colored steel engraving depicts a Pygmy Marmoset, Cebuella pygmaea, also known as the Pygmy Tamarin or Leonine Tamarin, and the Midas Lemurina. The image is taken from Sir William Jardine's Naturalist's Library: Monkeys, published in Edinburgh in 1844. The illustration was created by James Stewart and engraved by W.H. Lizars. The Pygmy Marmoset is a small primate native to South America, specifically in the Amazon Basin. They are the smallest monkey species in the world, with an average length of only 12 cm (4.7 inches) and weighing around 100 grams (3.5 ounces). They are characterized by their long, bushy tails, large eyes, and distinctive white fur around their faces. The Pygmy Marmoset's habitat includes primary and secondary rainforests, where they build their nests in tree cavities or use abandoned woodpecker holes. They are social animals that live in family groups, consisting of a dominant male, several females, and their offspring. Their diet consists mainly of insects, gums, and sap, but they also eat fruits, seeds, and small vertebrates. This engraving showcases the intricate details of the Pygmy Marmoset's features, from its expressive face to its delicate fur. The hand-coloring adds depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a beautiful representation of this fascinating primate species. The illustration also includes a small corn or maize plant in the background, highlighting the contrast between the human-introduced crop and the natural habitat of the Pygmy Marmoset.
