EDITORS COMMENTS
The Young Princes on their Cruise; at an Elephant Kraal Near Awisawella, Ceylon: 1" is a captivating 1882 engraving that takes us back in time to witness the grandeur of a royal adventure. In this vintage print, we are transported to the lush landscapes of Ceylon, where young princes embark on a remarkable cruise. The image showcases various scenes from their journey. Firstly, we see tame elephants from the kraal, majestic creatures tamed by human hands. The entrance to the kraal stands tall and inviting, hinting at the wonders that lie within. Moving forward, our attention is drawn to elephants drinking peacefully by a serene water source. Their gentle nature contrasts with the next scene—a captured elephant held captive against its will. We can sense its exhaustion caused by starvation—an unfortunate sight that reminds us of humanity's impact on these magnificent animals. Lastly, we encounter a pair of captives—perhaps symbolic of both strength and vulnerability. This intricate engraving beautifully captures not only historical events but also illustrative techniques prevalent during Victorian times. As we admire this retro-styled artwork from Liszt Collection's archives, it serves as a reminder of our responsibility towards preserving wildlife and appreciating cultural heritage through art.
