EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the dyaks, indigenous people of Borneo, engaging in their traditional hunting practices while riding on horseback and utilizing lasso weapons. The engraving is a visual representation of Alfred Russell Wallace's voyage through the Malaysian archipelago from 1854 to 1862, as published in "Le tour du monde" in 1870-1871. The image captures the essence of the dyaks' way of life, highlighting their deep connection with nature and their expertise in hunting techniques. Mounted on horses, they skillfully navigate through dense forests and rugged terrains to pursue game animals for sustenance. The lasso weapons they employ demonstrate their resourcefulness and precision in capturing prey. Through this engraving, we are transported back to a time when these ancient traditions were an integral part of daily life for the dyaks. It serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that exists within indigenous communities around the world. The black and white aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this artwork, emphasizing its historical significance. This print from Fine Art Finder's Selva Collection allows us to appreciate both the artistic craftsmanship behind it and its documentary value as a window into another era.
