EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Les otaries" transports us back to the 19th century French countryside. The print showcases a rural landscape with lush green pastures and rolling hills as far as the eye can see. In this idyllic setting, we catch a glimpse of an enchanting rural scene. The focal point of the image is a group of sea lions gracefully frolicking in their natural habitat. These majestic marine mammals captivate our attention with their playful antics and undeniable beauty. Their presence adds life and movement to the otherwise serene countryside. This illustration was originally created for La Chasse Illustree, a renowned publication from Firmin Didot in 1875. It offers us a window into the world of hunting during that era, highlighting state hunting practices and bloodsports prevalent at the time. As we delve into this artwork, we are reminded of France's rich history in hunting traditions. The country's love for nature and wildlife shines through in every stroke of this masterful engraving by an unknown French artist from the 19th century. Bridgeman Images has preserved this exquisite piece, allowing us to appreciate its intricate details today. This print serves as both a historical record and a testament to human fascination with animals and rural life throughout centuries gone by.
