Comfortable Feet Rugs Skin Skins Superiority Symbolises Tiger Furniture
EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print of a Tiger Skin Rug from the 20th century is not only visually captivating, but it also carries with it a deeper historical and symbolic significance. The use of tiger skins as rugs was once considered a luxurious and prestigious addition to any home, symbolizing man's perceived superiority over animals.
In ancient times, displaying tiger skins in one's home was seen as a status symbol, showcasing power and dominance over nature. The soft fur of the rug would have provided comfort to the feet while serving as a reminder of man's conquest over wild beasts.
However, in modern times, such practices are rightfully frowned upon due to conservation efforts aimed at protecting endangered species like tigers. This print serves as a poignant reminder of our changing attitudes towards wildlife and the importance of preserving these majestic creatures for future generations.
As we reflect on this piece of history captured in an image, we are reminded that our actions have consequences beyond mere decoration or comfort. It prompts us to consider how we can coexist with nature in harmony rather than asserting dominance over it.
