EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century takes us back to a thrilling wild turkey shooting expedition in New South Wales, Australia. The print showcases a group of skilled hunters navigating through a dense swamp, their rifles at the ready. Bound by excitement and anticipation, they embark on this exhilarating sport that has become an integral part of Australian culture. The scene captures the essence of adventure as these intrepid Australians venture into the untamed wilderness. With their eyes fixed on their target, they carefully aim for the majestic wild turkeys soaring above them. The lush surroundings provide an idyllic backdrop for this daring pursuit. As dusk approaches and success fills their bags with prized game, it is time for these hunters to make their way homeward. They carry with them not only trophies but also memories of camaraderie and shared experiences amidst nature's beauty. This artwork serves as a testament to the passion that Australians have always held for hunting and outdoor sports. It reflects both the skill required to excel in such endeavors and the thrill derived from playing games with nature itself. Bridgeman Images brings this historical masterpiece to life once again, allowing us to appreciate not only its artistic value but also its cultural significance within Australia's sporting heritage.
