EDITORS COMMENTS
Auguste-Andre Lancon's Russian Bear (n.d.) is a captivating monochrome drawing that transports viewers to the heart of Russia's vast and untamed wilderness. The image, created by the French artist using pen and black ink with brush and black wash on cream laid paper, captures the raw power and majesty of a bear in its natural habitat, lying down and resting after a long hunt. The bear's massive form dominates the composition, its muscular body covered in thick fur, its eyes closed in peaceful slumber. The artist's deft use of line and tone creates a sense of depth and texture, drawing the viewer in and immersing them in the scene. Despite the serene appearance of the image, there is an underlying sense of tension and unease, a reminder of the bear's immense strength and potential for danger. This contrast between beauty and power is a common theme in Lancon's work, which often explores the relationship between man and nature. Russian Bear is part of the rich heritage of the Arts Institute of Chicago's print and drawings collection. The image serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving and celebrating the natural world, as well as the role of art in capturing and interpreting the complexities of the natural world. The bear's location in the wild, untamed Russian landscape adds to the allure of the image, transporting viewers to a far-off land of snowy forests and vast expanses of untouched wilderness. Lancon's masterful use of line and tone brings the bear to life, making it a truly unforgettable work of art.
