EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from 1885 takes us back to the 19th century in Siberia, where the search for mammoth fossil ivory was a thrilling and perilous endeavor. The print, featured in Adolphe BITARD's "Les arts et metiers illustres" showcases the dedication and resourcefulness of these Russian hunters as they embarked on their quest. In this scene, we witness a group of intrepid individuals venturing into the vast expanse of Siberia's icy wilderness. Equipped with tools and determination, they traverse treacherous terrains in pursuit of precious mammoth fossil ivory. Their mission is not only driven by economic gain but also fueled by an insatiable curiosity about these ancient creatures that once roamed the earth. The engraving beautifully captures both the harshness and beauty of Siberia's landscape. The vibrant colors bring life to this historical moment, highlighting the contrast between man-made objects against nature's backdrop. Amidst towering snow-capped mountains and frozen rivers, these brave hunters navigate through blizzards and freezing temperatures to uncover hidden treasures buried beneath layers of ice. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded of humanity's relentless fascination with our planet's past. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and resilience while raising questions about our responsibility towards preserving Earth's natural wonders. This remarkable print invites us to reflect on our relationship with nature and reminds us that even in remote corners of the world, there are stories waiting to be discovered.
