EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the 16th century, where we witness a remarkable scene of hunting with a leopard. Inspired by Jan Stradan's original artwork, this lithograph from "Le Moyen Age et La Renaissance" by Paul Lacroix captures the essence of an era long gone. In this image, we see a male hunter on horseback, exuding confidence and bravery as he commands his majestic steed. But what truly captivates our attention is the presence of a wild cat - a leopard - seemingly tamed and obediently following its master's lead. The juxtaposition between man and beast creates an intriguing dynamic that speaks volumes about the relationship between humans and nature during this time. The hunter himself is adorned in traditional equestrian attire, complete with a plumed hat that adds an air of elegance to his figure. His stoic expression reveals both determination and respect for the art of hunting. As we delve into this snapshot from history, it becomes clear that there is more than meets the eye. Beyond showcasing skillful horsemanship and daring feats, this image invites contemplation on mankind's ability to tame even the wildest creatures through trust and companionship. Preserved in private collection but shared with us through Ken Welsh's lens, this piece serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage. It encourages us to appreciate not only the artistic mastery behind such works but also their capacity to transport us across centuries into worlds unknown.
