Gorilla Art
‘Nyango’ ~ Cross River Gorilla
Artist: Daniel Taylor | Medium: High Realism Acrylic
Meet Nyango, a queenly ambassador of the Cross River Gorilla, captured in breathtaking detail by artist Daniel Taylor. In the lush highland rainforests of South West Cameroon, these elusive gorillas are rarely seen. Yet Nyango, residing at Limbe Wildlife Center, allowed Daniel the rare privilege of studying and sketching her, inspiring the first-ever portrait of this critically endangered species. With her gentle gaze fixed on distant mountains, Nyango seems to call for a wild home still within reach—a poignant reminder of what is at stake for her species.
The Cross River Gorilla is Africa’s most endangered primate, with just 250–300 individuals left in the wild, making each one a symbol of hope and resilience. Through Daniel’s Art Expedition, this artwork brings you closer to the wild heart of Cameroon and the urgent mission to protect it.
