EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Clouds of Grasshoppers of the Vallee du Upper Patia" takes us back to a remarkable moment in history. The engraving, created by Riou, beautifully illustrates the story "L Amerique equinoxiale" written by E. Andre, a French government traveler on a mission in 1875-1876. Published in Paris in 1879 as part of the tour du monde magazine under Edouard Charton's direction, this image is now part of the Selva Collection. In this scene, we see an intrepid explorer mounted on his mule amidst an awe-inspiring cloud of grasshoppers. The woman's face reveals both fascination and fear as she encounters these extraordinary creatures during her journey through South America. Her portrait captures her determination and curiosity as she navigates unfamiliar territories. This photograph not only showcases the beauty and diversity found within nature but also highlights the courage and spirit of exploration that characterized this era. It serves as a testament to human resilience and our unending quest for knowledge about our world. Leonard de Selva has skillfully captured this historical moment with precision, allowing us to delve into the past and witness firsthand one woman's encounter with nature's wonders. As we admire this artwork today, let it remind us of our own capacity for discovery and inspire us to explore new horizons with open hearts and minds.
