Big Cat Cage Panther Storyteller Storytelling Terror
EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Terror of the orang-outang at Sai," transports us back to the 19th century with its intricate details and dramatic storytelling. Created by Henry Justice Ford, this piece was featured in The Animal Story Book edited by Andrew Lang in 1896.
The scene depicted is one of chaos and fear as an orangutan faces off against a fierce panther within a cage. The tension is palpable as the two powerful animals confront each other, their primal instincts on full display. The black and white contrast adds to the intensity of the moment, drawing us into the heart-pounding action.
Ford's skill as an engraver shines through in every line and shadow, capturing not only the physicality of the animals but also their emotions and intentions. It's a testament to his talent that we can almost hear the growls and feel the adrenaline coursing through our veins as we gaze upon this print.
As we admire this piece from a private collection, we are reminded of the timeless appeal of animal stories and how they continue to captivate audiences across generations. This engraving serves as a window into a world where nature reigns supreme, reminding us of both its beauty and its danger.
