EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored copperplate engraving, taken from Friedrich Bertuch's Bilderbuch fur Kinder (Picture Book for Children), published in Weimar in 1798, showcases an intriguing assembly of primates. The image features six distinct species of Old World monkeys and apes, each exhibiting unique physical characteristics that distinguish them from one another. In the foreground, the Lesser Spot-nosed Monkey (Cercopithecus petaurista) is depicted with a distinctive white spot on its nose and a bushy tail. The Grivet (Chlorocebus aethiops), represented by three individuals, can be identified by their grayish-brown fur and white rings around their eyes. The Javan Surili (Presbytis comata), an endangered species, is shown in the upper left corner. This primate is characterized by its long, prehensile tail, and its fur is a mix of gray, brown, and white. The Simia Aygula, or Tufted Capuchin (Sapajus apella fatuellus), is shown in the upper right corner. This primate is easily recognizable by its tufted ears and bushy tail. The fourth primate, the Javan Surili, is an endangered species native to the Indonesian islands of Java and Bali. These monkeys have a long, prehensile tail, and their fur is a mix of gray, brown, and white. They are also known for their distinctive nose, which is shorter and less prominent than that of the Lesser Spot-nosed Monkey. The history of this illustration is as fascinating as the primates it depicts. Friedrich Bertuch's Bilderbuch fur Kinder was one of the earliest educational picture books for children, and this engraving is a testament to the detailed and accurate representation of the natural world that was achievable during this time. The handcoloring adds an additional layer of beauty and depth to the image, making it a valuable historical artifact as well as a captivating work of art.
