EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print takes us back to the enchanting Hyde Park Bird Sanctuary and Hudson Memorial in London during the 1920s. Created by McLeish, this artwork beautifully captures the essence of this remarkable sculpture by Jacob Epstein, which stands as a tribute to William Henry Hudson, an esteemed author, naturalist, and ornithologist. The photogravure showcases the intricate details of Epstein's sculpture that immortalizes Hudson's legacy. The memorial is situated within Hyde Park, one of London's iconic green spaces. It serves not only as a sanctuary for birds but also as a testament to the importance of wildlife preservation. Published in Wonderful London edited by Arthur St John Adcock and released between 1926-1927, this print transports us to a different era. Its monochrome aesthetic adds depth and nostalgia to the image while highlighting its artistic value. As we gaze upon this piece from The Print Collector collection, we are reminded of Sir Jacob Epstein's mastery in capturing human emotions through his sculptures. This collaboration between McLeish, Arthur St John Adcock, Jacob Epstein himself, and William Henry Hudson creates an extraordinary blend of artistry that celebrates nature's beauty alongside human achievement. In summary, this stunning print invites us into a world where art meets nature—a timeless reminder of our connection with wildlife and our duty to preserve it for future generations.
