EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured copperplate engraving captures the beauty and vulnerability of two critically endangered lemur species, the Indri indri and Varecia rubra. The Indri, also known as the babakoto, is the largest living lemur and is native to Madagascar. With its distinctive black and white markings and haunting call that echoes through the rainforest, this primate is a symbol of Madagascar's unique biodiversity.
Next to the Indri stands the red ruffed lemur, with its vibrant russet fur and striking black mask. This species is known for its acrobatic abilities in the trees and social nature within their family groups. Both lemurs are facing threats from habitat loss due to deforestation, hunting, and climate change.
The intricate details of this engraving showcase the artistry of natural history illustrations from centuries past. Created by Rene Primevere Lesson for Buffon Supplements in 1838, this piece serves as a reminder of our responsibility to protect these precious creatures for future generations.
As we admire this image, let us reflect on the importance of conservation efforts to ensure that these magnificent lemurs continue to roam freely in their forest homes. Let us be inspired to take action towards preserving biodiversity and safeguarding endangered species like the Indri indri and red ruffed lemur for years to come.
