EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "S" showcases a unique and intriguing scene captured by Francois Antoine Appel. The image depicts a crocodile perched on a terrace, with the letter 'S' boldly displayed on its back. Surrounding the reptile are savages armed with bows and arrows, representing an indigenous culture in North America. The composition of this artwork is both visually striking and thought-provoking. It transports viewers to a time when wildlife and native communities coexisted harmoniously in the vast landscapes of America's western hemisphere. The presence of the crocodile adds an element of surprise, as it is not typically associated with this region. Appel's attention to detail shines through in this chromolithograph from the late 19th century. Each stroke captures the essence of these wild animals, emphasizing their strength and beauty. This piece serves as more than just an aesthetic delight; it also offers educational value by showcasing different aspects of nature, weaponry, hunting practices, and cultural diversity. As we delve into this artwork further, we can appreciate how it symbolizes the importance of learning about our surroundings - whether that be through art or direct experience. Through its rich historical context and artistic excellence, "S" invites us to explore new perspectives while appreciating the wonders that exist within our world.
