EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century, titled "Home of the gorilla" takes us deep into the heart of Africa's dense jungle. The image, part of a private collection and originally featured in Boys Own magazine, showcases the raw power and majesty of these magnificent creatures. The scene is filled with intense emotions as we witness a group of hunters approaching the gorilla's habitat. The anger and fear in their eyes are palpable, contrasting sharply with the tranquility and strength exuded by the mighty ape. This juxtaposition highlights not only man's cruelty towards nature but also our own vulnerability when faced with such primal forces. The artist skillfully captures every detail - from the texture of fur to each facial expression - allowing us to feel a range of emotions ourselves. Anguish, anxiety, bitterness; all seven deadly sins seem to be present within this powerful composition. As we gaze upon this print by Bridgeman Images, we are reminded that our actions have consequences for both ourselves and the world around us. It serves as a poignant reminder to respect and protect our natural environment rather than exploit it for personal gain. Through its timeless depiction of humanity's complex relationship with nature, this engraving invites contemplation on our role as stewards of this planet.
