EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a young kestrel, beautifully showcasing its delicate features. Taken by renowned photographers Richard Kearton (1862-1928) and Cherry Kearton (1871-1940), this image is part of their iconic Nature Pictures collection, published in 1910. The young kestrel's piercing gaze draws you into its world, revealing the wonders of nature through the lens of these pioneering photographers. The monochromatic tones add a timeless quality to the image, emphasizing the bird's graceful form against a simple backdrop. This photograph serves as a historical artifact from the early 20th century, offering us a glimpse into an era when capturing wildlife on film was still in its infancy. It reminds us of our enduring fascination with nature and our desire to preserve it for future generations. As we admire this stunning portrayal of youth and innocence in nature, we are reminded that even amidst rapid industrialization and societal changes during that time period, there was still room for appreciation and awe-inspiring beauty found within our natural surroundings. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from their private collection, allowing us to appreciate not only the artistic skill behind it but also its significance as an important document in natural history photography.
