EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Animals of North Africa (colour litho)" takes us on a mesmerizing journey into the nocturnal world of wildlife. The image, created by the European School in the 19th century, showcases a private collection that beautifully captures the essence of North African animals. Underneath the enchanting glow of moonlight, we witness a scene filled with an array of fascinating creatures. Striped Hyenas and Spotted Hyenas roam alongside Jackals, while Grey Vultures gracefully soar above them. This illustration was originally featured in The Instructive Picture Book's second edition published by Edward Stanford in 1877. The photograph transports us to a natural burial ground where these magnificent animals scavenge for carrion under the watchful eye of a full moon. Each animal plays its unique role within this delicate ecosystem, creating an intriguing balance between life and death. As we delve deeper into this snapshot from history, it becomes evident that nature has always been both awe-inspiring and ruthless. The pillar-like structures scattered across the landscape serve as silent witnesses to countless generations who have called this land home. Bridgeman Images presents this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder without mentioning any commercial use. It serves as a reminder that our planet is teeming with diverse species whose existence relies on preserving their habitats and respecting their place in our shared world.
