EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic Variegated Baboon or Mandrill, known scientifically as Mandrillus sphinx (Simia sphinx). The image, a hand-coloured engraving created by Frederick Polydor Nodder in 1790, is part of a private collection. It was originally published in George Shaw's Vivarium Naturae or the Naturalists Miscellany between 1789 and 1813. The photograph beautifully captures the essence of this late eighteenth-century illustration. With its vibrant colours and intricate details, it transports us back to a time when naturalists meticulously documented the wonders of the animal kingdom. In this particular piece, we see a full-length depiction of a Variegated Baboon seated outdoors. Its fierce expression and menacing posture are strikingly portrayed through Nodder's skilled hand-colouring technique. The baboon's face, with its variegated patterns and intense gaze, captivates our attention. Nodder's talent shines through his ability to convey both the physicality and character of this primate species. The mandrill holds our gaze while using its hands in an almost human-like manner—a testament to their intelligence and dexterity. This print not only celebrates nature but also pays homage to the artistry of illustrators like Frederick Polydor Nodder and their contributions to scientific knowledge during the late 18th century. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, these exquisite engravings continue to inspire awe and appreciation for Earth's diverse wildlife.
