EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the St Kilda Sheep, an exquisite engraving created by the English School in the 19th century. With its intricate details and lifelike depiction, this artwork transports us back to a historical era when Australia's rich natural heritage was being discovered and documented. The St Kilda Sheep, native to the remote island of St Kilda in Scotland, were brought to Australia during colonial times. This engraving serves as a testament to the fascination that these unique creatures held for both artists and explorers alike. Through skilled craftsmanship, this image captures not only the physical attributes of these remarkable animals but also their essence - their resilience and adaptability in harsh environments. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of the engraving tool, bringing each strand of wool and every facial expression vividly to life. Originally commissioned for Chatterbox magazine in 1871, this digitally cleaned image now resides within a private collection. Its presence here allows us a glimpse into Australian history through art; it reminds us of our connection with nature and how we have shaped it over time. As we admire this fine piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, let us appreciate not just its aesthetic beauty but also its role as a visual record of our shared past – an ode to those who sought knowledge and understanding through artistic exploration.
