EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "An Ingenious Poacher" captures a moment of suspense and cunning. Created by the French School in the 20th century, this colour lithograph showcases the creativity and resourcefulness of a skilled poacher. In this scene, customs officers have stumbled upon his secret stash hidden beneath a seemingly innocent wagonload of cabbages. The image depicts an intricate web of deception and concealment as the poacher cleverly disguises his spoils amidst everyday produce. The horse-drawn cart adds to the charm of this historical setting, transporting us back to a time when crime was met with ingenuity rather than modern technology. The composition is rich with details that bring this story to life - from the expressions on the customs officers' faces as they uncover their unexpected discovery, to the meticulous arrangement of stolen goods concealed beneath layers of green foliage. Through this artwork, we are reminded not only of human nature's capacity for deceit but also our ability to adapt and outsmart those who seek to enforce justice. The poacher's craftiness serves as both an inspiration and cautionary tale about pushing boundaries within society. This mesmerizing print is part of a private collection and was originally created for Le Petit Journal in September 1901. Its timeless appeal continues to captivate viewers today, offering a glimpse into an era where cunning prevailed over authority.
