EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of South America with its depiction of Ateles, or spider monkeys. Created by an English School in the 19th century, this engraving is a true work of art that now resides in a private collection. The image was originally intended to illustrate W H G Kingston's book "On the Banks of the Amazon" published by T Nelson in 1901. The enchanting scene showcases these agile and curious creatures swinging through the lush forests of South America. The dense pine and spruce trees create a picturesque backdrop for these wild animals as they navigate their natural habitat. This portrayal transports us to the heart of Amazonia, where nature thrives in all its glory. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded of the incredible biodiversity found on this vast continent. South America is home to some of Earth's most diverse ecosystems, housing countless species like these spider monkeys that contribute to its rich tapestry. Through this engraving, we catch a glimpse into early twentieth-century exploration and discovery when much of South America remained uncharted territory for many Westerners. It serves as a reminder not only of our fascination with wildlife but also our ongoing quest to understand and appreciate the wonders that lie within our own planet. Bridgeman Images has preserved this piece beautifully, allowing us to appreciate both its artistic value and historical significance today.
