EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print captures the majestic beauty of a Polar Bear, Thalassarctos Maritimus, in its natural habitat. Created by an American School artist in the 19th century, this artwork is part of a private collection and showcases the incredible detail achieved through this printing technique. The trade card featuring the polar bear dates back to either the late 19th or early 20th century and was likely used for educational purposes. The image transports us to the Arctic region with its icy landscape, towering icebergs, and mesmerizing aurora borealis illuminating the sky. Intriguingly, amidst this serene scene lies a news item suggesting an attack on boats by these powerful creatures. This adds an element of danger and excitement to the composition as we witness a tugboat navigating through treacherous waters while transporting passengers. The print serves as both a visual delight and an informative piece about transportation in extreme environments. It reminds us of nature's raw power and resilience while highlighting our ongoing fascination with exploring remote regions like the North Pole. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable artwork from their Fine Art Finder collection, allowing us to appreciate not only its artistic value but also its historical significance.
