EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "Hunting the Kangaroo, aborigines in New South Wales" transports us to a time long gone. Engraved by Matthew Dubourg between 1813-1820, it offers a glimpse into the lives of indigenous Australians during this period. The scene depicted is set along a serene riverbank, where members of an Aboriginal tribe are engaged in their traditional hunting practices. A group of male hunters can be seen wielding spears with great precision and skill as they prepare to capture their prey - the elusive kangaroo. Their focused expressions and poised stances reveal their deep connection with nature and their expertise in survival. The artist, John Heaviside Clark, has masterfully captured the essence of this ancient ritual through his meticulous attention to detail. Every line etched on the print tells a story; every stroke brings life to these native warriors who have honed their hunting techniques over generations. As we gaze upon this remarkable engraving from our private collection, we are reminded of the rich cultural heritage that exists within Australia's indigenous communities. It serves as a testament to both their resilience and profound understanding of nature's delicate balance. This powerful image invites us to reflect on our own relationship with the natural world and encourages us to appreciate and preserve cultures that have thrived for centuries against all odds.
