EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning lithograph print captures the beauty and intricacy of two endangered primate species, the Collared mangabey and the female red-shanked douc monkey. Illustrated by Jean Gabriel Pretre and edited by Pierre Jean Francois Turpin in 1816, this piece is a true masterpiece from the "Dictionary of Natural Sciences" by Frederic Cuvier. The Collared mangabey, also known as cercocebus torquatus, is depicted with its distinctive crown-like fur pattern around its face. This vulnerable species is facing threats to its habitat and population due to deforestation and hunting. Next to it, we see the female red-shanked douc monkey, scientifically known as Pygathrix nemaeus. With its vibrant red legs and striking facial features, this endangered primate stands out in the illustration. The hand-colored copperplate engraving adds depth and detail to these magnificent creatures, showcasing their unique characteristics for viewers to admire. The meticulous attention to accuracy in depicting these animals highlights their importance in the natural world. As we marvel at this exquisite artwork, let us remember the significance of conservation efforts in protecting these precious species for future generations to appreciate.
