The Little Man and His Gun
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating colour lithograph that transports us back to the 19th century. This charming illustration, part of the "Pictures for Pets with Rambling Rhymes" captures a moment filled with emotion and adventure. In this scene, we see a Victorian gentleman standing on a riverbank, his walking stick clenched tightly in one hand while he brandishes a small gun in the other. His anger is palpable as he gazes at something beyond our view. The intricate details of his furrowed brow and clenched teeth convey his intense rage. Surrounded by lush willow trees and botanical wonders, this man's hunt takes an unexpected turn as a mischievous dog chases after an elusive mallard flying above him. The juxtaposition of nature's beauty against human emotions creates an intriguing contrast. The artist skillfully portrays not only the physical act of hunting but also delves into deeper themes such as bitterness and fury - two of the seven deadly sins that plague humanity throughout history. This print serves as both an exquisite piece of artistry and a window into Victorian society's fascination with scientific methods and natural history. It reminds us how even in moments of intense emotion, nature continues its course undisturbed. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable work from their private collection, allowing us to appreciate the talent behind it while immersing ourselves in its rich narrative.
