EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Lapland Peasants pursued by Wolves" takes us back to the 19th century, capturing a moment of intense drama and survival. The print showcases an English School's artistic rendition of a chilling scene that unfolded in Lapland, Norway. In this gripping illustration for the Illustrated Times, dated 21 February 1857, we witness brave Lapland peasants desperately fleeing from a pack of relentless wolves. With fear etched on their faces and determination in their eyes, these resilient individuals navigate through the treacherous terrain of Scandinavia. The artist masterfully portrays the vulnerability of the peasantry as they are relentlessly pursued by their ferocious predators. The harshness of nature is palpable; one can almost feel the biting cold wind and hear the haunting howls echoing through this unforgiving landscape. This engraving not only serves as a visual feast but also sheds light on historical aspects such as animal attacks faced by European peasants during that era. It offers us a glimpse into both the hardships endured by those living off the land and their unwavering spirit to survive against all odds. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are reminded of humanity's resilience when confronted with adversity. It stands as a testament to our ability to persevere even in times when danger lurks at every corner.
