EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Elephant Snare at Kotawy" takes us back to the early 19th century in Ceylon (now Sri Lanka). The image is part of a volume called "A Description of Ceylon" by James Cordiner, published in 1807. The photograph showcases a scene that is both awe-inspiring and thought-provoking. In the foreground, we see a stockade-like structure designed to ensnare elephants. It serves as a stark reminder of the challenges faced by these majestic creatures during that time period. What makes this image truly intriguing is the presence of trained elephants training other elephants within the enclosure. This glimpse into their world offers us an insight into their intelligence and social dynamics. The lithographic technique used to create this print adds depth and texture, enhancing its visual appeal. The monochromatic palette further emphasizes the historical significance captured within this frame. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from our private collection, it prompts us to reflect on humanity's relationship with nature throughout history. It reminds us of our responsibility towards preserving wildlife and ensuring their well-being for future generations. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also invites contemplation on how far we have come in terms of conservation efforts since then.
