EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving by Samuel Begg, we are transported to a world where the delicate balance between humans and nature is beautifully depicted. The image showcases a Pigeon-Fancier, an individual who possesses a deep love and admiration for these elegant birds. The scene unfolds with a woman gracefully holding her parasol, standing amidst a flock of pigeons that surround her in perfect harmony. Her gentle presence seems to have tamed these creatures as they perch on her shoulders and arms, their feathers glistening in the sunlight. Begg's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his engraving tool. The intricate patterns on the woman's dress mirror the elegance of her feathered companions, creating an enchanting visual symphony. It is as if she has become one with them - a true testament to the bond shared between humans and animals. This print was originally featured in The Illustrated London News back in 1887, captivating readers with its timeless beauty. Now preserved within a private collection, it continues to inspire awe and wonder among those fortunate enough to lay eyes upon it. As we gaze at this remarkable artwork from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we can't help but be reminded of the profound connection that exists between mankind and nature – a connection that transcends time and reminds us of our responsibility to protect and cherish all living beings around us.
