EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled ""I seized his fore-legs " (engraving)" takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing an intense moment of action and excitement. The image depicts a thrilling scene from South America, where two brave boys engage in a fierce fight with a formidable opponent - a cayman or crocodile. The engraving beautifully captures the motion and agitation of this heart-pounding encounter. With blurred motion adding to the sense of urgency, we can almost feel the adrenaline coursing through their veins as they seize the fore-legs of the powerful creature. As we delve into history through this artwork, it becomes evident that adventure was not limited to fictional tales but also existed in real-life events. This illustration originally appeared in "The World of Adventure" a collection that aimed to stir imaginations with its stirring scenes and moving accidents. Through this image, we are transported to a time when exploration and daring feats were celebrated. It reminds us of the bravery exhibited by those who ventured into unknown territories across Latin America and other parts of the Western Hemisphere. This print is more than just an artistic representation; it serves as a testament to human resilience and our innate desire for adventure.
