EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Pterodactyl fishing" takes us back to the prehistoric era where ancient creatures roamed the Earth. Created by an anonymous French artist in the 19th century, this gouache on paper masterpiece showcases a dramatic scene of nature's raw power and survival instincts. In this artwork, we witness a stormy sea as waves crash against jagged rocks. The sky is dark and ominous, setting the stage for an intense encounter between predator and prey. A majestic Pterodactyl hovers above the turbulent waters with its wings spread wide, ready to strike at any moment. The focal point of this painting is undoubtedly the Pterodactyl's hunting technique. With razor-sharp precision, it swoops down towards its unsuspecting fish prey below. Its long beak opens wide as it prepares to capture its meal in one swift motion. This portrayal highlights not only the strength and agility of these ancient reptiles but also their ability to adapt to different environments. The artist skillfully captures every detail of this thrilling moment - from the texture of feathers on the Pterodactyl's wings to each ripple in the water below. Through vibrant colors and meticulous brushstrokes, they bring life to a long-extinct world that continues to fascinate us today. As part of a private collection now housed within eArchives Charmet, this extraordinary piece invites viewers into a realm where imagination meets scientific curiosity. It serves as a reminder that even amidst chaos
