EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and detailed lithograph captures the essence of the global trade in fish oils, hides, and skins during the 20th century. The print showcases a variety of animals - from sperm whales to goats - whose products played a crucial role in international commerce. The illustration was originally created for an Atlas of the World's Commerce, compiled by J. G. Bartholomew in 1907. It serves as a visual representation of the intricate web of supply and demand that shaped economies around the world at that time. The chart accompanying the artwork provides valuable information on price fluctuations, import/export trends, and sources of these animal-derived commodities. It offers historians and economists a glimpse into past commercial practices while highlighting how wildlife resources were exploited for economic gain. Beyond its historical significance, this lithograph is also visually captivating. The bold colors bring life to each animal depicted, showcasing their unique textures and characteristics. From blubber-rich whales to supple sheepskins, every detail is meticulously rendered. As we gaze upon this print today, it reminds us not only of our interconnectedness with nature but also prompts reflection on how global trade has evolved over time. This artwork stands as a testament to both human ingenuity and our complex relationship with animals throughout history.
