EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a remarkable moment in nature's wild embrace. Titled "Hog Hunters Meeting, by Surprise" the image showcases a Tigress and her adorable cubs, engraved by H. Merke in the early 19th century. The original design was crafted by Captain Thomas Williamson and published by Edward Orme during that time. The scene unfolds against a breathtaking landscape, transporting us to India during the era of British empire. A group of skilled hunters on horseback can be seen engaging in an exhilarating pig sticking hunt, their determination evident as they navigate through the terrain with precision. What truly steals our attention is the unexpected encounter between these fearless hunters and the majestic Tigress along with her playful cubs. It is a rare sight indeed - two worlds colliding in perfect harmony amidst this thrilling chase. The artist Samuel Howett has expertly captured this extraordinary moment for eternity, allowing us to witness both beauty and danger intertwine effortlessly. As we gaze upon this striking photograph, we are reminded of nature's power and allure while also reflecting on humanity's complex relationship with wildlife. Displayed proudly within a private collection today, this timeless artwork serves as a testament to our fascination with adventure, courage, and the untamed spirit that resides within us all.
