EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Sagacious Bruin" takes us back to the year 1924 when it was first published in A Hundred Anecdotes of Animals. Created by the talented artist Percy J. Billingshurst (1871-1933), this print showcases his exceptional skill in capturing the essence of wildlife. The image portrays a polar bear, known as Sagacious Bruin, amidst a snowy landscape. With an axe in one hand and snowshoes strapped to its feet, this clever creature appears ready for an adventure. The scene is lighthearted and humorous, evoking a sense of playfulness that instantly brings a smile to our faces. As we delve deeper into this artwork, we are reminded of the moral lessons often associated with animals in folklore and fables. Perhaps Sagacious Bruin teaches us about resourcefulness or adaptability – qualities necessary for survival in harsh environments like the Arctic. The attention to detail is remarkable; every stroke of Billingshurst's engraving technique adds depth and texture to each element within the composition. From the intricate rope tied around Sagacious Bruin's waist to its piercing gaze filled with intelligence, there is no doubt that this artwork captures not only physical likeness but also inner character. Displayed proudly on any wall or mantelpiece, this enchanting print from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection serves as a timeless reminder of nature's wonders and invites contemplation on humanity's relationship with animals throughout history
