EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning illustration of the Proboscis Monkey, dating back to 1860. Created by an anonymous German artist from the 19th century, this colour lithograph is part of a private collection and holds historical significance. The artwork was originally published in "A Bilder-Atlas zur wissenschaftlich-populären Naturgeschichte der Säugetiere in ihren sämtlichen Hauptformen" in 1860 by Leopold Joseph Fitzinger. The image depicts two distinct species: the Bornean Proboscis Monkey (Nasalis larvatus) and the Douc Langur (Semnopithecus nemaeus). Both monkeys are beautifully illustrated with intricate details that capture their unique features and characteristics. The vibrant colors used in this lithograph bring these remarkable creatures to life, allowing viewers to appreciate their natural beauty. Known for its distinctive long nose, which gives it its name, the Proboscis Monkey is native to Borneo and often found near rivers or mangrove forests. This print offers a rare glimpse into the world of these fascinating mammals, showcasing their elegance and grace. Preserved through time, this historic artwork continues to captivate audiences with its artistic merit and scientific value. It serves as a reminder of our fascination with nature's wonders while also highlighting humanity's ongoing exploration and understanding of various animal species throughout history.
