EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a fascinating moment in the wilds of South America. The engraving, created by an English School artist in the 19th century, depicts a spider crab seizing a lizard amidst the lush Amazonian landscape. This powerful illustration was originally featured in W. H. G Kingston's book "On the Banks of the Amazon" published by T Nelson in 1901. The image showcases nature's raw and relentless power as we witness this unusual encounter between two distinct species. The spider crab, with its menacing claws extended, dominates the scene while firmly grasping onto its unsuspecting prey - a lizard desperately trying to escape its clutches. The setting itself is awe-inspiring; dense pine and spruce forests create a picturesque backdrop for this intense struggle for survival. The forest teems with life, exemplifying the rich biodiversity found within South America's vast wilderness. As we delve into this artwork, it serves as a reminder of both the beauty and harsh realities that exist within our natural world. It highlights not only the intricate interplay between different creatures but also their constant battle for survival. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from history, allowing us to appreciate and reflect upon nature's wonders captured during early twentieth-century exploration of South America.
