In the world of illustrations, the mannikin stands tall and proud, just like The King of the Golden Mountain. Its lifelike presence is a result of the intricate processes and apparatus of taxidermy, as seen in litho prints. From Jumbo the elephant stuffed to perfection to The Three Little Men in the Wood from Little Brother & Little Sister, these mannikins bring stories to life. Even fashion has embraced their charm with a fashionable costume made in 1896 for Lovisa Ter. Adorned with a jacket that exudes elegance, this mannikin showcases timeless style. But it's not just humans that find solace in these creations; birds on the wing come alive when cut out meticulously or captured through chromolithographs from 1895. Their vibrant colors and graceful flight are frozen in time for all to admire. Beyond aesthetics, mannikins also serve educational purposes like raising awareness about tuberculosis prevention and treatment through an informative display by the Tuberculosis Association. Nature enthusiasts find joy in observing real-life species like White-rumped Munia perched gracefully on citronella bushes or Scaly-breasted Munia with its distinctive leg ring resting on grass stems. These mannikins allow us to appreciate nature's beauty up close without disturbing its delicate balance. Whether it's capturing history or celebrating nature's wonders, mannikins play a vital role as Picture No. 10858112 reminds us - they are more than mere replicas; they are gateways into worlds both real and imagined.
