EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving showcases the majestic Lion-tailed Macaque, a rare and endangered species native to the Western Ghats of South India. Created by the German School in the 19th century, this print is a testament to the intricate artistry and attention to detail that characterized this era. The artist, Johann Carl Bock, skillfully captures the essence of these fascinating creatures. With their distinctive black manes framing their regal faces and expressive eyes, these macaques exude both strength and vulnerability. The vibrant colors used in this engraving bring life to every strand of fur and leaf in the background. Originally published as part of "A Die SAaugthiere in Abbildungen nach der Natur mit Beschreibungen" by Johann Christian Daniel von Schreber, this work serves as an invaluable resource for naturalists and enthusiasts alike. It offers a glimpse into our understanding of wildlife during that time period. As we gaze upon this remarkable illustration today, it reminds us not only of the beauty found within nature but also highlights our responsibility towards its preservation. The lion-tailed macaque's endangered status urges us to protect its habitat from further destruction. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are able to appreciate this historical piece from a private collection. Let it serve as a reminder that art has always been intertwined with our fascination for animals and their place in our world.
