EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate artwork of John T. Bowen, an esteemed engraver from the 19th century. The image depicts a Brown, or Norway Rat, meticulously engraved with remarkable detail and brought to life through a vibrant colour lithograph. Published in 1845 as part of Audubon's collection, this piece is now held in a private collection. The rat featured in this artwork stands as both fascinating and repulsive - a creature often associated with vermin and pestilence. Yet, its presence within this composition serves as a reminder of the delicate balance between nature's beauty and its less appealing aspects. As we observe this print closely, our attention is drawn to the background where vegetables are prominently displayed. This juxtaposition hints at the rat's role as both consumer and destroyer of crops – an ever-present challenge for farmers throughout history. Through Bridgeman Images' lens, we are invited to appreciate not only the technical skill behind Bowen's engraving but also reflect on humanity's complex relationship with rodents like these. Beyond their reputation as pests, they play an integral part in ecosystems worldwide. This photograph print offers us an opportunity to delve into nature’s intricacies while contemplating our own place within it – reminding us that even creatures deemed undesirable possess their own unique charm when viewed through an artistic lens.
