EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcolored copperplate stipple engraving, published by F.G. Levrault in Paris, France, in 1816, showcases three fascinating mammals native to the island of Madagascar: the Kinkajou (Potos flavus), the Aye-aye (Daubentonia madagascariensis), and the Potos flavus, also known as the Honduran White-tailed Capuchin or simply the White-nosed Capuchin. The illustration was created by the skilled artist Jean Gabriel Pretre, who was a painter of natural history at Empress Josephine's zoo and later became an artist at the Museum of Natural History. The Kinkajou, depicted in the center of the image, is a nocturnal primate with a prehensile tail and a distinctive face marked by a white stripe running from its eyes to its nose. The Aye-aye, on the left, is a unique primate characterized by its long, bushy tail, large eyes, and elongated middle finger. The third mammal, the Potos flavus, is a type of sloth found in Central and South America, but this engraving likely includes it due to its previous classification as a Madagascar native. The intricate details of the animals' fur textures, facial features, and postures are beautifully captured through the stipple engraving technique, which involves the use of tiny dots to create shading and depth. This historical artwork not only showcases the natural beauty of these fascinating creatures but also highlights the artistic mastery of Jean Gabriel Pretre and the impressive production process of copperplate engraving during the early 19th century.
