EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print, titled "Mantled guereza" takes us back to the 19th century and offers a glimpse into the rich natural history of Africa. The image showcases a stunning black and white illustration of a mantled guereza, also known as colobus guereza, perched on a tree branch in its native habitat. The intricate details captured by the English School artist bring this magnificent monkey to life. Its striking black fur contrasts beautifully against the monochromatic background, highlighting its unique features and graceful pose. This lithograph was originally published in The Boys Own Annual in London during 1893/1894. As we delve into this piece, we are transported to Central Africa's lush landscapes where these fascinating creatures roam freely among towering trees. The print not only celebrates the beauty of nature but also serves as an important scientific document from that era. Through this artwork, we can appreciate both the artistic skill involved in creating such detailed illustrations and gain insight into historical scientific methods used for documenting wildlife. It reminds us of our connection with nature and encourages us to cherish and protect our delicate ecosystems. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from their private collection, allowing us to marvel at its beauty centuries later. This print is a testament to the enduring power of art in capturing moments frozen in time while providing valuable insights into our planet's diverse flora and fauna.
