EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "A Stampede from a Wolf" takes us back to the year 1867, when Samuel John Carter's engraving first graced the pages of The Illustrated London News. In this dramatic scene, we witness the sheer terror and chaos that ensues as a pack of wolves attacks a flock of sheep. The composition is masterfully executed, with every line and detail capturing the intensity of the moment. The powerful presence of the she-wolf at the forefront commands our attention, her piercing eyes reflecting both hunger and determination. Behind her, an entire stampede unfolds as panicked sheep desperately try to escape their impending doom. Carter's skillful rendering brings these animals to life on paper, showcasing his deep understanding of wildlife anatomy and behavior. Through his artistry, he transports us into this wild encounter between predator and prey. This image serves as a reminder of nature's raw power and its delicate balance. It evokes emotions ranging from fear for those vulnerable sheep to awe for the strength and cunningness displayed by these majestic creatures. As we gaze upon this historic piece captured by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded once again why art has such an enduring impact - it allows us to experience moments like these long after they have passed.
