EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a fascinating array of marine mammals, captured in the 19th century by the talented German School. The image features different types of seals, with a marbled seal stealing the spotlight on the left side. Its unique patterns and graceful presence make it an enchanting subject to behold. Atop the composition, we find a majestic walrus commanding attention with its impressive tusks and robust physique. This magnificent creature exudes strength and resilience, symbolizing the power of nature's creations. Completing this mesmerizing display are sea lions scattered throughout the frame. Their sleek bodies and playful expressions evoke a sense of curiosity and liveliness that is characteristic of these intelligent creatures. Taken from "Natural history of mammals" edited by Schreiber in Munich back in 1886, this historical piece offers us a glimpse into our understanding of wildlife during that era. Preserved within private collection archives, this photograph holds both artistic value and scientific significance. The photographer behind this masterpiece is Leonard de Selva, whose skillful eye captures every intricate detail with precision. Through his lens, he transports us to an era long gone but immortalized through his artistry. As we admire this remarkable composition today, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also recognize our responsibility to protect these incredible animals who share our planet's oceans.
