EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Maharao Shatru Sal II (1866-89) Hunting a Tiger" takes us back to the 19th century in India. The image showcases the bravery and skill of Maharao Shatru Sal II as he engages in a thrilling hunt with a fierce tiger. In this black and white masterpiece, we witness the intensity on his face as he aims his bow and arrow at the majestic feline. The photograph captures not only an exhilarating moment but also provides us with a glimpse into Indian history and culture. Maharao Shatru Sal II, a prominent figure in Rajasthan, represents the royal heritage of Hindoostan. His regal attire reflects his status as a maharaja, while his weapon choices - spear and bow - highlight traditional hunting practices during that era. Surrounded by lush vegetation, Maharao Shatru Sal II rides atop an elephant, symbolizing power and dominance over nature. This composition adds depth to the image by showcasing both man's connection to animals through hunting and their reliance on majestic creatures like elephants for transportation during such expeditions. Preserved by The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this unknown photographer has immortalized an extraordinary moment in time where two forces collide: man versus beast. Through this remarkable piece of heritage art, we are transported into an era filled with adventure, courage, and respect for nature's wild beauty.
