EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable natural history board, featuring an exquisite zoological representation. The board presents a fascinating array of creatures, including 1. Young chimpanzees, 2. young Orangutans (also known as orang-utans or orangutangs), 3. adult Orangutan, and 4. Crane du Pongo de Wurmb. Engraved in 1837 by the renowned naturalist Georges Louis Leclerc, Count of Buffon (1707 - 1788), this piece is part of his esteemed "Complete Works of Buffon". The intricate details and lifelike depictions bring these animals to life on paper. The first section captures the innocence and curiosity of young chimpanzees, their playful nature evident in every stroke. Moving to the second panel, we encounter adorable young Orangutans swinging from branches with grace and agility. As our eyes wander further across the board, we are met with a majestic adult Orangutan exuding wisdom and strength in its gaze. Finally, our attention is drawn to the fourth illustration depicting the rare Crane du Pongo de Wurmb—a creature that captivates with its elegance and unique features. This engraving by Jean Bernard beautifully preserves Buffon's legacy while offering us a glimpse into the rich diversity found within our animal kingdom. It serves as a testament to both artistry and scientific exploration—an invitation for us to marvel at nature's wonders through time-honored craftsmanship
