EDITORS COMMENTS
Minjawa, or Iguana: A Detailed Observation from the 18th Century Sketchbook of Jan Brandes This image is a pencil drawing of an iguana, created by the Dutch naturalist and artist, Jan Brandes, in 1784. The iguana, depicted in this drawing, is shown from an above angle, providing a unique perspective that highlights the intricate details of its scaly body. The drawing is part of Brandes' extensive sketchbook, dl. 1, page 149, which is now held in the prestigious Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands. Brandes, a prominent figure in the field of herpetology during the eighteenth century, meticulously documented various species of reptiles, including this iguana, during his travels in Southeast Asia, particularly in Java, Indonesia. The drawing is inscribed with the name "Minjawa," which is likely a local Javanese name for the iguana. The drawing showcases the artist's exceptional skill in capturing the naturalistic details of the iguana's body, from its elongated tail to its textured scales. The use of pencil and paper allows for a delicate and precise representation, while the inclusion of handwritten annotations adds to the historical significance of the piece. This drawing is a testament to the rich natural history heritage of the Low Countries, as well as the European fascination with the exotic wildlife of Southeast Asia during the 18th century. The intricate details and historical context make this sketch an invaluable addition to any collection focused on natural history, art, or the history of science.
