EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a serene moment in Ceylon, now known as Sri Lanka, back in 1898. The renowned artist and author Christian Wilhelm Allers beautifully illustrates elephants bathing in the Mahaweli river. In his book "Rund um die Erde" (Round the Earth), Allers takes us on a visual journey through various landscapes and cultures. In this particular scene, we see several majestic elephants immersed in the refreshing waters of the Mahaweli river. Accompanied by their mahouts, these gentle giants enjoy a hygienic ritual that not only cleanses their bodies but also symbolizes harmony between humans and animals. The image showcases the tropical beauty of this enchanting country while highlighting its rich geography. The lithograph perfectly captures the essence of Ceylonese life during that era - a harmonious coexistence with nature. As we admire this snapshot from history, it reminds us of the importance of preserving our natural surroundings and respecting all creatures that inhabit our planet. Through Allers' artistic lens, we are transported to an era where man and animal lived side by side in peaceful symbiosis. This remarkable piece serves as both a historical document and an exquisite work of art; it invites us to appreciate not only its aesthetic value but also ponder upon our own relationship with nature.
