EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "The Charge of Sixpences -- a buffalo hunt in Ceylon (Sri Lanka). 1854," transports us back in time to an era of adventure and big game hunting. The image, taken in the mid-1850s, depicts a thrilling moment during a buffalo hunt in the lush wetlands of Sri Lanka. A group of hunters, dressed in colonial attire, are seen standing around the edge of a serene pond, their rifles at the ready. The hunters, most likely British colonizers, have laid out ropes and other makeshift barriers to encircle the water's edge, creating a trap for the unsuspecting buffaloes. In the foreground, a hunter, with a determined look on his face, takes aim at a charging buffalo. The powerful animal, with its massive horns and muscular build, charges towards the hunter, its eyes fixed on its target. The hunter, with a steady hand, fires his rifle, the smoke from the gunpowder billowing out behind him. The scene is one of both beauty and danger, as the hunters navigate the delicate balance between man and nature. The tranquil waters of the pond contrast sharply with the raw power and intensity of the buffaloes, making for a striking visual representation of the untamed wilderness of Sri Lanka during the 1850s. This photograph, taken by an unknown photographer, is a testament to the rich history of hunting in Sri Lanka and the adventurous spirit of the colonial era. It serves as a reminder of the awe-inspiring natural world that exists beyond our modern-day boundaries and the thrill of the chase that has captivated humans for generations.
