EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating engraving titled "My First Buffalo-Hunt in India" takes us back to the thrilling adventure of a bygone era. Created by Richard Caton Woodville II, this artwork captures the essence of a dramatic buffalo hunt in the dense forests of India. In this scene, we witness an intense moment as a hunter, guided by an experienced shikarree, spots his first buffalo. With rifle in hand and heart pounding with anticipation, he cautiously approaches his target. The broken landscape serves as a reminder of the challenges that lie ahead. The image transports us to colonial India, where cattle ranching and hunting were integral parts of life. It offers a glimpse into Indian culture and showcases the bravery and skill required for such endeavors. Woodville's masterful technique brings every detail to life - from the majestic presence of the buffaloes to the lush vegetation that surrounds them. The artist's attention to realism allows us to feel immersed in this action-packed moment. This print is part of Look and Learn / Illustrated Papers Collection held privately but made accessible through Bridgeman Images. It originally appeared as an illustration for The Illustrated London News on February 21st, 1891. "My First Buffalo-Hunt in India" not only celebrates the artistry behind engraving but also provides insight into historical events and cultural practices that shaped India during colonial times.
