EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured copperplate engraving captures the beauty and vulnerability of the Mangabey crown, also known as the Collared mangabey (Cercocebus torquatus). Created in 1796 by John Pass after an illustration by Johann Jakob Ihle, this piece is a testament to the intricate artistry and scientific accuracy of natural history engravings from the 18th century. The detailed depiction of this endangered species showcases its distinctive features, from its striking crown-like fur pattern to its expressive eyes. The artist's skillful hand has brought this majestic creature to life on paper, allowing viewers to appreciate its unique characteristics and importance in the animal kingdom. As we admire this historical artwork, we are reminded of the crucial role that zoological illustrations played in expanding our knowledge of wildlife during a time when exploration and discovery were at their peak. Each line and shading in this engraving tells a story of curiosity, observation, and dedication to capturing nature's wonders for generations to come. Let us cherish this stunning print as a window into the past, celebrating both the artistic talent behind it and the enduring legacy of scientific inquiry that continues to inspire us today.
