EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Tiger Frightened by a Snake" transports us back to 1858 when it was created by the talented artist Ferdinand Victor Eugene Delacroix. The intricate pen and ink technique on tracing paper brings this intense moment to life with remarkable detail. In this mesmerizing artwork, we witness the raw power of nature as a majestic tiger finds itself in a state of fear and vulnerability. Its piercing eyes widen in terror as it confronts an unseen threat - a slithering snake lurking nearby. Delacroix masterfully captures the tension and drama of this encounter, leaving us on edge as we imagine what might happen next. Displayed at the Musee Marmottan Monet in Paris, France, this piece is part of their esteemed collection. Measuring 17x23 cm, its small size only adds to its intimate appeal, drawing viewers closer to examine every stroke and line. Delacroix's "Tiger Frightened by a Snake" is not just an ordinary sketch; it is an exploration into the animal kingdom's untamed beauty. It serves as a reminder that even creatures known for their strength can be vulnerable when faced with unexpected challenges. As we gaze upon this extraordinary artwork from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded of our own fears and how they can shape our lives.
