EDITORS COMMENTS
This image is a shadow portrait of the fictional character A Great Bear, created by the renowned English artist Charles H. Bennett in 1860. The intriguing series of shadow portraits, titled "Shadow and Substance," showcases Bennett's exceptional artistic skill in manipulating light and shadow to bring his characters to life. In this particular portrait, Bennett masterfully uses the natural form of a bear to create an enchanting representation of A Great Bear. The bear's menacing yet majestic presence is conveyed through the play of light and dark, with the deep shadows accentuating its muscular form and the subtle highlights bringing out the details of its fur. Charles H. Bennett was a prolific illustrator and painter, known for his work in various genres, including historical, allegorical, and literary subjects. His shadow portraits, however, represent a unique and innovative approach to the art of portraiture. By using the simple yet powerful medium of light and shadow, Bennett was able to capture the essence of his characters in a way that was both visually striking and thought-provoking. This image of A Great Bear is a testament to Bennett's artistic prowess and his ability to transform the ordinary into the extraordinary. The portrait invites the viewer to ponder the story behind the character and the meaning behind the title "A Great Bear." The historical significance of this work, as part of the "Shadow and Substance" series, adds an additional layer of intrigue and interest to this mesmerizing image.
