EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Hunting Seals, 1871" by Ernest Henry Griset takes us back in time to witness a primal scene of man's ancient pursuit. Set against the backdrop of a breathtaking sunset on a serene beach, we are transported to an era long gone. The artist skillfully captures the atmosphere and intensity of this prehistoric hunt. A lone male figure, armed with a spear, stands poised on the shore as he prepares to embark on his daring mission. The seals frolic in the water nearby, unaware of their impending fate. Griset's painting is not just an exquisite display of paleoart but also serves as a reminder of our ancestral connection to nature and our primal instincts. It evokes a sense of awe and reverence for those who came before us, surviving through hunting and gathering. As we gaze upon this artwork, we can almost feel the salty breeze caressing our faces and hear the crashing waves in the distance. It transports us to another time when survival depended on one's ability to navigate nature's challenges. Displayed at Bromley Museum in Orpington, UK, this timeless piece continues to captivate viewers with its raw beauty and historical significance. Through Griset's masterful brushstrokes captured here in vibrant watercolors on paper, we are reminded that art has the power not only to preserve history but also evoke emotions that transcend time itself.
