EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century engraving titled "Apporte!" transports viewers to the serene countryside of rural France. The print, part of a private collection, was originally created as an illustration for the book La Chasse Illustree in 1871-72. The scene captures the essence of rural life and hunting traditions during this era. Set against a backdrop of lush green pastures and rolling hills, we witness a group of hunters accompanied by their loyal collie dog. The hunters eagerly await the return of their prized game, as one man extends his arm with anticipation, commanding his faithful companion to retrieve. The image exudes a sense of tranquility and harmony between man and nature. The softness captured in this black-and-white engraving adds depth and texture to each element portrayed - from the intricate details on the dogs' fur to the graceful flight of birds soaring above. As we admire this piece, it serves as a reminder not only of our connection to wildlife but also our historical ties to traditional hunting practices. It offers us a glimpse into an earlier time when these activities were considered both sport and necessity. Through its artistry and composition, "Apporte!" invites us to appreciate not only the beauty found within French landscapes but also our shared history with animals in their natural habitats. This exquisite print showcases how fine art can transport us across centuries while preserving moments that continue to resonate today.
