EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored copperplate stipple engraving depicts a male Hamadryas baboon (Papio hamadryas), with a macaque (Macaca, unspecified) in the background. The Hamadryas baboon is native to the mountainous regions of Ethiopia and Eritrea, and is distinguished by its distinctive white markings on its face and chest. In this illustration, the Hamadryas baboon is shown with a confident and alert posture, displaying its sharp canines and strong jaw. The macaque in the background appears smaller and more subdued, adding a sense of scale and context to the scene. The illustration is taken from Frederic Cuvier's Dictionary of Natural Science: Mammals, published in Paris, France, in 1816. The work was produced by a team of skilled artisans, including the painter of natural history Jean Gabriel Pretre, engraver Carnonkel, and director Pierre Jean-Francois Turpin, with publication by F.G. Levrault. Pretre was an accomplished artist who had previously worked at Empress Josephine's zoo and later became the artist to the Museum of Natural History. The intricate stipple engraving technique used in this illustration required great skill and patience, resulting in a highly detailed and textured image. The handcoloring adds an additional layer of beauty and realism, making this a truly stunning representation of these fascinating primates. The illustration is a testament to the artistry and scientific precision of the time, and remains an important historical document in the field of zoology and natural history.
