EDITORS COMMENTS
Un laisser-courre au desert (engraving) captures the essence of a thrilling hunt in the vast and untamed African desert. Created by an anonymous French School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases a scene from La Chasse Illustree (Firmin Didot, 1868-69), a renowned publication dedicated to hunting. In this rural landscape, surrounded by green pastures and open countryside, we witness the exhilarating pursuit of wild game. The image depicts horsemen mounted on magnificent racehorses and ponies, accompanied by well-trained foxhounds and elkhounds. Their determination is palpable as they navigate through the rugged terrain with grace and agility. The diversity of wildlife animals adds to the allure of this artwork. Majestic deer species like stag, fawn, fallow deer, and roe deer roam freely amidst the desert backdrop. The juxtaposition of these elegant creatures against such harsh surroundings evokes a sense of awe for nature's resilience. This engraving not only celebrates the thrill of hunting but also highlights our deep connection with animals and their natural habitats. It serves as a reminder that even in remote regions like Central Africa's deserts, life flourishes abundantly. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Private Collection curated by Bridgeman Images, we are transported back to an era when state hunting was considered both sport and spectacle – an art form intricately woven into rural life.
