EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable George Wilhelm Steller, an explorer and zoologist who made groundbreaking discoveries during his expeditions. In this image, we are presented with a visual narrative of Steller's encounter with the majestic Steller's Sea-Cow, a creature that has sadly become extinct. The sea-cow depicted here is nearly six meters long, emphasizing its grandeur and significance. The top section of the print features an engraving of the sea-cow's skeleton, highlighting its unique anatomical structure. This serves as a poignant reminder of what once existed in our natural world. On the bottom left corner, we find an engraved representation of an early map depicting Behring Sea - a testament to Steller's exploration and mapping achievements. Intriguingly, on the bottom right corner lies another engraving showcasing one of Steller's sketches. This illustration not only demonstrates his artistic talent but also provides insight into how he documented his findings during these pioneering times. Overall, this photograph print encapsulates various themes such as zoology, exploration, arctic landscapes, Kamchatka history – all without human presence. It allows us to reflect upon our planet's rich biodiversity while reminding us of species lost forever due to human impact.
