EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Australian shepherd, beautifully engraved after a drawing by D. Maillart. The image is part of the Selva Collection and was originally published in 1880 to illustrate the story "Six Months in Australia" by Desire Charnay. Commissioned by the Ministry of Public Education, this engraving captures the essence of life in Australia during that era. The photograph exudes a sense of loneliness and sadness as it portrays a pauper-like figure dressed in traditional shepherd attire. The ruggedness of his appearance reflects the hardships faced by those working tirelessly on Australian lands. With an animal companion at his side, he symbolizes both companionship and laborious dedication. Through this image, we catch a glimpse into the poverty-stricken conditions endured by many Australians at that time. The somber expression on the shepherd's face speaks volumes about his struggles and resilience amidst adversity. As we admire this remarkable piece from French School's 19th-century collection, we are reminded of how art can transcend time and capture significant moments in history. Leonard de Selva's photography skillfully preserves every intricate detail, allowing us to appreciate not only its aesthetic value but also its historical significance.
