EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print captures a moment of adventure and danger in the dense forests of Terai, Nepal. A European hunter is seen mounting his howdah, preparing for the thrilling chase of a tiger. The image is from an illustration for Prince Henri D'Orleans' Voyages en Asie et a Madagascar, showcasing the daring exploits of explorers in the late 19th century.
The intensity of the scene is palpable as the hunter readies himself to confront one of nature's most fearsome predators. The contrast between light and shadow adds drama to the composition, emphasizing the bravery and skill required for such a perilous pursuit.
Prince Henri of Orleans was known for his adventurous spirit and thirst for discovery, traits that are evident in this image. Through his travels in Asia, he sought to uncover new lands and cultures while facing formidable challenges along the way.
This photograph serves as a window into a bygone era when exploration was at its peak and adventurers pushed boundaries in search of knowledge and excitement. It reminds us of the thrill of discovery and the courage it takes to venture into unknown territories.
