EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured lithograph by Waterhouse Hawkins showcases the remarkable versatility of the camel, a creature revered for its multiple uses throughout history. Created as part of the Graphic Illustrations of Animals and Their Utility to Man series, this print beautifully captures the essence of this magnificent mammal. The image depicts a camel in all its grandeur, highlighting its importance as a means of transport, provider of milk and meat, and even as a source for cloth. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke, bringing out the intricate patterns on the camel's hide and conveying a sense of realism that engages viewers. Waterhouse Hawkins was renowned for his expertise in creating lifelike models, particularly his prehistoric animals exhibited at London's Crystal Palace in 1851. This print serves as another testament to his artistic prowess and dedication to capturing nature's wonders. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded not only of the practical value camels have brought to human civilization but also their enduring beauty. They symbolize resilience and adaptability in harsh environments while embodying gracefulness with their elongated necks and elegant strides. Through this stunning lithograph, we are transported back in time to an era when humans relied heavily on these majestic creatures for survival. It is a visual reminder that our relationship with animals has always been intertwined with our own progress and well-being.
