EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the late 19th century, a time when the logging industry was booming and California's majestic redwood trees were being felled. The image showcases the sheer magnitude of nature's giants as a group of determined loggers embark on the challenging task of cutting down one such colossal California Redwood. The massive trunk towers above them, its girth seemingly impossible to conquer. With axes in hand, these brave men demonstrate their strength and skill as they chop away at this mighty symbol of nature's grandeur. The scene is filled with both awe and melancholy, for while we marvel at the tree's immense size, we also witness its demise. Published in 1897 by The Strand Magazine, this illustration captures an era when timber was in high demand for construction and other industries. It serves as a poignant reminder of our human impact on the environment throughout history. Renowned photographer Ken Welsh has expertly preserved this momentous event through his lens, allowing us to reflect upon our relationship with nature and ponder how far we have come since then. This print stands not only as a historical artifact but also as an artistic testament to man's ability to shape his surroundings – for better or worse.
