EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to witness a scene from the past. In this engraving titled "Geese carried to market" we are transported to the 18th or 19th century, where British geese were being transported for trade. The renowned artist Thomas Bewick skillfully captures the essence of this historical moment. The image showcases a horse adorned with a saddlebag, carrying several plump geese on its back. The attention to detail is remarkable; you can almost hear the clip-clop of hooves and feel the weight of each bird as they sway gently with every step. It's fascinating how such a simple act as transporting livestock could be transformed into an artistic masterpiece. As we delve deeper into this print, it becomes apparent that it represents more than just a practical means of transportation. It symbolizes human ingenuity and our ability to adapt nature's resources for our needs. Moreover, it serves as a reminder of the interconnectedness between humans and animals throughout history. This particular print comes from Fine Art Finder's collection, showcasing their commitment to preserving and sharing significant works of art like Bewick's engravings.
