EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history when the Late Captain Speer shot a majestic Rhinoceros in Assam back in 1862. The image, taken by an English Photographer, showcases the sheer power and beauty of this magnificent animal.
The rhino stands tall and proud, its thick skin glistening under the sunlight as it roams freely in its natural habitat. The details captured in this photograph are truly remarkable, from the intricate patterns on its horn to the wrinkles on its face.
This historic image is a reminder of the bravery and skill required for hunting such formidable creatures during that time period. It also serves as a testament to the importance of wildlife conservation efforts today, as rhinos continue to be threatened by poaching and habitat loss.
Displayed in The Sports of the World edited by F G Aflalo (Cassell, 1903), this print is not just a stunning visual representation but also a piece of art that tells a story of adventure and exploration. It transports us back to a time when humans were still discovering the wonders of nature and capturing them through photography.
