EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Seal hunting in Newfoundland" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by the French School in the 20th century, this print captures the intense hunt for seals off the coast of Newfoundland, Canada. The image was originally published as an illustration for Le Petit Journal on June 15,1902. In this scene, we witness Canadian hunters braving treacherous icy waters and harsh conditions to pursue their prey. Armed with clubs, they approach a group of seals huddled together on the ice. The atmosphere is tense as both hunter and hunted face off against each other. While this artwork showcases a traditional practice that has been part of Newfoundland's cultural heritage for centuries, it also raises questions about cruelty towards animals. Seal hunting has long been controversial due to concerns over sustainability and animal welfare. The engraving skillfully depicts the vastness of North America's western hemisphere and highlights how humans have interacted with nature throughout history. This particular print serves as a poignant reminder of our complex relationship with wildlife and prompts us to reflect on our responsibility towards preserving these magnificent creatures. Displayed proudly within private collections worldwide, this lithograph from Bridgeman Images offers viewers an opportunity to delve into historical events while contemplating important ethical considerations surrounding human-animal interactions.
