The print, now part of a private collection, showcases the incredible artistry and attention to detail that was characteristic of this era. The image depicts a powerful lion standing proudly beside his elegant lioness. Their majestic presence is beautifully captured, showcasing their strength and grace. It's evident that this artwork was created with great skill and precision. While the exact book it was featured in remains unidentified, one can imagine how this illustration would have added excitement to any publication related to sports or leisure activities during that time period. Perhaps it served as an inspiration for those who sought adventure in nature or participated in hunting expeditions.
