EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Elephant hunting - 'Le Monde en prints ou Geographie des cinq parts du monde' by the Chevalier de Roujoux, 1828" takes us back to a time when exploration and adventure were at their peak. The image showcases a scene of intense action as an elephant is being hunted in the wild. The French School's intricate engraving skillfully captures the essence of this dangerous pursuit. The hunter, depicted with great detail and precision, stands tall and determined, armed with his weapon of choice. His eyes are fixed on the majestic creature before him, showcasing both respect for its power and determination to conquer it. The composition transports us to a distant land where untamed nature reigns supreme. We can almost feel the tension in the air as man confronts beast in this primal struggle for survival. Every line etched into the print tells a story of bravery, strength, and human ingenuity. Preserved within Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, France, this piece serves as a reminder of our complex relationship with wildlife throughout history. It invites contemplation on themes such as conservation efforts or ethical considerations surrounding hunting practices. Leonard de Selva's expert photography brings out every intricate detail of this historical artwork while adding depth through shadows and contrast. Through his lens, we are able to appreciate not only the technical mastery behind these engravings but also their enduring beauty that transcends time itself.
