The Wily Shikari and the Greedy Saurian, an Ingenious Expedient
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating engraving by William Ralston that takes us back to a thrilling hunting scene in 1896. The image depicts a wily shikari, or hunter, who has devised an ingenious plan to outsmart a greedy saurian, most likely referring to a crocodile. In this dramatic moment captured on paper, we witness the shikari's cunning strategy unfold. Suspecting that the saurian might try to rob him of his hard-earned spoils, the shikari cleverly instructs his loyal companion to keep watch while he collects firewood nearby. Little does the crocodile know what awaits it. As soon as the reptile seizes its opportunity and lunges towards the unattended bag of game pieces left by its unsuspecting prey, our resourceful hero springs into action. With lightning speed and precision, he hurls a well-aimed missile from behind a hidden rock formation at just the right moment. The scene unfolds with both disappointment and reward: while our wily shikari receives satisfaction from successfully foiling his foe's plans and saving his hard-won spoils from being swallowed whole by air-borne jaws; there is also an undeniable sense of respect for nature's power at play here. This intriguing print not only showcases Ralston's artistic talent but also invites us to ponder themes of ingenuity, friendship, and survival
