The New Neighbour
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a fascinating encounter between two distinct creatures of the animal kingdom, the Cape Sea Lion and the Adjutant Bird. This exquisite engraving by Henry Stacey Marks takes us back to 1891 when it was first published in The Graphic magazine. In this scene, we witness an unlikely friendship forming as these two unique species come face to face. The majestic Cape Sea Lion, with its sleek body and soulful eyes, gazes curiously at its new companion – the elegant Adjutant Bird. With its long legs and distinctive beak, the bird stands tall beside the sea lion, seemingly unbothered by their differences. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his engraving technique. From the intricate patterns on each creature's skin or feathers to their expressive postures, Marks skillfully brings this enchanting moment to life. This print not only showcases nature's diversity but also reminds us of how unexpected connections can be formed even among those who appear vastly different from one another. It serves as a gentle reminder that harmony can exist amidst diversity if we are open-minded enough to embrace it. As we admire "The New Neighbour" let us appreciate both the beauty of these magnificent animals and reflect on our own capacity for acceptance and understanding in a world where coexistence is essential for all living beings.
