EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print showcases an Orangutan in Frankfurt Zoo, Germany during the 19th century. The artwork is part of a private collection and was originally featured in El Mundo Ilustrado Biblioteca de Las Familias (The Illustrated World Library of Families), published by Biblioteca Ilustrada de Espasa Hermanos in Barcelona around 1880. In this image, we see the orangutan perched on a chair amidst its captive environment. The furniture and surroundings reflect German culture with their distinctive style and design. The primate seems to be engrossed in play, surrounded by toys, a ladder, and ropes that provide entertainment within its enclosure. The artist skillfully captures the essence of this magnificent creature's curiosity and intelligence. Its expressive eyes convey both wonderment and longing for freedom beyond the confines of captivity. This lithograph not only serves as a visual delight but also raises questions about our relationship with wildlife in zoos. It prompts us to ponder the ethical implications of keeping such intelligent beings confined for human amusement. Through this artwork, we are transported back in time to witness a moment frozen forever - an intimate glimpse into the life of an orangutan residing within Frankfurt Zoo's walls.
