EDITORS COMMENTS
is an evocative and captivating photograph from the 1850s, depicting a tense moment between a hunter on horseback and a large buffalo in the lush reeds of Ceylon, now known as Sri Lanka. The hunter, dressed in traditional hunting attire, sits atop his horse with a rifle firmly grasped in his hands, his eyes focused intently on the buffalo that is rearing up from the reeds, its massive form looming in the foreground. The animal's eyes are fixed on the hunter, its breath visible in the still morning air, as it prepares to charge. The hunter, in turn, aims his weapon with steady hands, the barrel of the gun glinting in the early sunlight. The scene is one of raw power and primal energy, as the two forces collide in a dance as old as time itself. The high reeds, swaying gently in the breeze, add an element of mystery and intrigue to the image, creating a sense of being privy to a secret moment in the wild. The photograph, taken in 1854, is a testament to the thrill and excitement of hunting in the 19th century, as well as the beauty and raw power of the natural world. This powerful image, captured by King from Mary Evans Prints Online, is a must-have for any collection of wildlife or hunting photography.
