The artwork is based on Paul Marcoy's book "Travels in South America" published in 1875. It transports us to the lush landscapes of Peru, where these two primate species, Ateles niger and Ateles rufus, engage in a dramatic confrontation. The intensity of their struggle is palpable as they leap through the branches with agility and determination. Riou's skillful rendering captures every nuance of this memorable combat. From the intricate facial expressions to the dynamic poses, each element contributes to creating a sense of action frozen in time.
