EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the title page and frontispiece of "Large Game Shooting in Tibet" a remarkable book written by Colonel Alexander Kinloch and published in 1885. The lithograph, created by an English School artist from the 19th century, is part of a private collection known as The Stapleton Collection. The image transports us to the majestic landscapes of Tibet, the Himalayas, and Northern India. It depicts various animals that were hunted during large game expeditions led by Colonel Kinloch. Among them are impressive creatures like tigers, elephants, ibexes, oryxes, and many others. Intriguingly, some animals appear skinned on this frontispiece engraving - a testament to both the challenges faced during these hunting adventures and the colonial attitudes prevalent at that time. Nevertheless, it provides us with a glimpse into an era when big-game hunting was considered an adventurous sport. The intricate details captured in this lithograph highlight not only the skillful artistry but also serve as a historical record of wildlife found in Asia during that period. This print serves as a reminder of our ever-evolving relationship with nature and how it has shaped our understanding of conservation today. Displayed proudly on any wall or within any collection space, this stunning print invites viewers to appreciate both its artistic value and its significance within historical context.
