EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite illustration from Rudyard Kipling's renowned novel, "Kim" published in 1930. Created by the talented artist Francois-Louis Schmied, this vibrant colour lithograph captures the essence of adventure and intrigue that permeates throughout the story. Set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Himalayas, we see a horseback traveller navigating a winding path through majestic mountains. The rider is enveloped in a sea of vibrant flowers, adding a touch of serenity to their daring journey. This scene perfectly encapsulates the spirit of exploration and danger that characterizes "The Great Game" - a term used to describe espionage and rivalry between Britain and Russia during this era. Kipling's masterful storytelling comes alive through Schmied's skillful interpretation. The detailed illustration transports us into Kim's world, where he embarks on thrilling escapades as he navigates India and Central Asia. It is evident that both Kipling and Schmied were captivated by these lands' beauty, as they intricately depict every element with precision. This print not only serves as an homage to Kipling's literary masterpiece but also stands alone as a remarkable work of art. Its vivid colors and meticulous attention to detail make it an enchanting addition to any collection or space. Whether you are drawn to its portrayal of equestrian sport or simply appreciate its visual splendor, this print invites you on an unforgettable journey through time and place
