EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1897 showcases the diverse world of Anthropoidea, featuring four distinct genera: Hylobates (Red), Simia (Blue), Gorilla (Brown), and Anthropopithecus (Green). The image is a part of Lloyds Natural History - Monkeys, a renowned book by Henry O. Forbes and edited by R. Bowdler Sharpe. The map depicted in this print provides an intriguing glimpse into the distribution of these primate species across the globe during the 19th century. Each color represents a different genus, allowing us to visually comprehend their geographical range. From vibrant red representing Hylobates to serene blue symbolizing Simia and earthy brown signifying Gorilla, each hue brings life to these remarkable creatures. Meanwhile, the green shade highlights Anthropopithecus' presence in specific regions. This artistic representation not only serves as a testament to scientific exploration but also reflects the intersection between literature and natural history. It stands as a valuable piece that captures our fascination with primates while showcasing Edward Lloyd's dedication to publishing educational works. As we delve into this historical photograph, we are transported back in time when scientists like Henry O. Forbes meticulously documented nature's wonders for future generations to appreciate. This print reminds us of our ever-evolving understanding of our animal counterparts and how they contribute to Earth's rich biodiversity.
