EDITORS COMMENTS
captures the essence of adventure and discovery in 19th-century Equatorial Africa. This engraving, created by an English School artist, takes us back to a time when exploration was at its peak. The print showcases a momentous encounter between man and beast, as depicted in Paul B du Chaillu's renowned book "Explorations and Adventures in Equatorial Africa". In this evocative scene, we witness the awe-inspiring presence of a majestic gorilla amidst dense African foliage. The hunter-explorer stands tall with his chest puffed out, showcasing both courage and vulnerability in the face of such primal power. With every intricate detail etched into the print, we are transported to an era where wild animals roamed freely across uncharted territories. The image not only celebrates the beauty of these magnificent creatures but also highlights the spirit of exploration that drove individuals like Paul du Chaillu to venture into unknown lands. It serves as a testament to their determination to unravel nature's mysteries while facing untold dangers along the equator. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are reminded of our own fascination with wildlife and our innate desire for adventure. "My First Gorilla" invites us on a visual journey through time—a reminder that there is still much left to discover about our planet's diverse ecosystems and the incredible beings that inhabit them.
