EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a chilling scene from early 20th century Russia. In this dramatic artwork, created by the French School, we witness a sleigh carrying a wedding party under attack by a pack of ferocious wolves. The color lithograph beautifully depicts the terror and chaos that unfolds as the horses struggle to outrun their relentless pursuers. Set against a snowy backdrop, the image evokes both fear and awe as we see the desperate efforts of those on board to defend themselves using whips and any means necessary. The danger is palpable, with every member of the wedding party gripped by anguish and anxiety. The artist's skillful rendering transports us to Siberia, where such encounters with wild animals were not uncommon during winter journeys. The presence of she-wolf and jackals in addition to wolves adds an extra layer of horror to this already harrowing scene. Through this artwork, we are reminded of the untamed beauty and inherent dangers that come with traveling through remote regions like Siberia. It serves as a testament to human resilience in facing nature's wrath while also highlighting our vulnerability when confronted with its raw power. This powerful image from Bridgeman Images' private collection offers viewers an opportunity to reflect on our place within nature's grand tapestry – one that can be both breathtakingly beautiful and terrifyingly unpredictable.
