EDITORS COMMENTS
This watercolour painting, dated circa 1917, from the March of the Women Collection on Mary Evans Prints Online, presents an intriguing and unusual image of a forest tiger. The creature in the painting exhibits the facial features and hands of a human, adding an element of mystery and fascination to the already majestic beast. The tiger is depicted prowling through a lush forest, surrounded by towering trees and a vibrant array of colourful flowers. The artist's use of watercolour creates a sense of depth and texture, bringing the scene to life. The painting, which is believed to have been published in a magazine, is estimated to have been featured in the January 1918 volume. The artist is identified as John William Hancock, although it is important to note that this is not the well-known American statesman and artist of the same name. The unusual combination of human and animal characteristics in the painting adds to its allure and makes it a standout piece in any collection. The forest tiger, also known as the Royal Bengal Tiger, is a magnificent creature native to the Indian subcontinent. With its distinctive orange coat and black stripes, it is a symbol of power and strength in many cultures. The painting captures the essence of this majestic animal in a unique and captivating way, making it a must-have for any nature or art enthusiast.
