EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Le lynx" takes us back to the 19th century French countryside. The print, part of a private collection, was originally created as an illustration for the renowned publication La Chasse Illustree in 1867-68. The artwork showcases the exquisite detail and precision of scientific methods used in botanical and natural history studies during that era. Set against a backdrop of green pastures and towering trees, this rural landscape transports us to a serene and idyllic setting. Intriguingly, the focus is on a majestic lynx - its piercing eyes gazing into the night with an air of mystery. As a nocturnal creature, it embodies the essence of wildlife animals thriving under moonlit skies. The artist's skillful use of black-and-white contrasts adds depth to every stroke, capturing both the gracefulness and power inherent in this elusive predator. Its body appears poised for action amidst its surroundings. Beyond its artistic appeal, this engraving also sheds light on historical hunting practices prevalent during that time period. It serves as a reminder of France's rich cultural heritage intertwined with nature's beauty. With Bridgeman Images' expertise in preserving fine art prints like these, we are fortunate to have access to such remarkable pieces from our past. This particular print offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate not only the craftsmanship but also gain insights into European wildlife conservation efforts throughout history.
