EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph titled "Black sable trapping in Northern China and Saghalien" takes us back to a bygone era of exploration and commerce. Created by an anonymous English School artist in the 20th century, this print is part of a private collection. The image depicts a scene from J Henry Vanstone's book "The Raw Materials of Commerce" published in 1929. It showcases the intricate process of trapping black sables in the untamed landscapes of Northern China and Saghalien. The illustration highlights both the scientific methods employed and the historical significance of these raw materials. In this artwork, we see trappers skillfully setting up traps amidst slender tree trunks that sway gently with springy branches. A carefully arranged piece of brushwood serves as bait, enticing these elusive creatures into their capture. The surrounding botanical elements add depth to our understanding of this natural history expedition. Through this lithograph, we are transported to a time when science intertwined with adventure, shedding light on the wonders hidden within nature's grasp. It reminds us that history is not only shaped by grand events but also by those who sought knowledge through meticulous observation and exploration. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece for all to admire—a testament to humanity's unending quest for discovery and understanding in fields such as botany, natural history, and science itself.
