EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a portrait of Lieutenant Colonel Prjewalski, the renowned traveler and narrator. The detailed drawing, skillfully created by F. Lix, beautifully illustrates his extraordinary journey to Mongolia and the land of the Tangutes from 1870 to 1873. Lieutenant Colonel Prjewalski's military uniform is impeccably depicted in this engraving, emphasizing his distinguished status as an esteemed officer. With sword in hand and arm confidently placed on a table, he exudes both strength and intellect. The artist has masterfully captured not only Prjewalski's physical appearance but also his character as a writer. This portrayal highlights the connection between his military background and literary pursuits. As an author, he documented his remarkable experiences during this expedition which were later published in Le tour du monde magazine under Edouard Charton's direction. The Selva Collection proudly presents this historical artwork that offers us a glimpse into Lieutenant Colonel Prjewalski's adventurous life. It serves as a testament to human curiosity and exploration during the late 19th century. Leonard de Selva expertly captures every intricate detail of this engraving through photography, preserving its timeless beauty for future generations to appreciate. This image is now available for public viewing without any copyright restrictions or limitations on non-commercial use.
