As the inscription on the verso indicates, the mandrill seen here formed part of the famous menagerie of exotic creatures assembled by the Stadtholder, Prince William V of Orange-Nassau (1748-1806) at his country residence, Het Kleine Loo, on the outskirts of The Hague. We are grateful to Ruud Vlek for informing us that the lack of red on the nose indicates that this is a female mandrill not a male, and that this may well be the earliest depiction of this species.
