Title: Simia Inuus, Simia Lar, Simia Moloch Author: Brodtmann Date: 1814 Medium: Hand-colored lithograph Condition: Very Good Inches: 13 x 16 [Image] Centimeters: 33 x 40.6 [Image] Product ID: 307000 Hand-colored lithograph of a Barbary macaque, white-handed gibbon, and silvery gibbon by Karl Joseph Brodtmann (1787-1862), one of the most accomplished lithographers of the early-nineteenth century. Born in the city of Überlingen near the German-Swiss border, Brodtmann worked for much of his career in Zurich and Schaffhausen, Switzerland. He produced numerous hand-colored volumes of images related to natural history which served as instructional resources for bio- and zoologists. Brodtmann's lithographs also became sought-after collectibles for the aristocracy, a fact which attests to both the great beauty as well as the scientific accuracy of his work.
