EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The British Mission to Morocco, Sport in the Atlas Mountains" takes us on a visual journey back to 1887. Created by Richard Caton Woodville II and now held in a private collection, this artwork was originally published as an illustration for The Illustrated London News. In this scene, we find ourselves amidst the rugged beauty of the Atlas Mountains in Morocco. A group of British hunters embarks on an adventurous expedition through this majestic landscape. Their primary objective? To engage in thrilling sport and hunt down wild boars, moufflons, and gazelles. Woodville's meticulous attention to detail brings every element of this composition to life. From the intricate topography of the mountains to the expressions on each hunter's face - determination mixed with excitement - we are transported into their world. However, not everything goes according to plan during this mission. As our eyes wander across the print, we notice an unexpected twist: an unwelcome visitor interrupts their pursuit. Perhaps it is another creature seeking refuge or simply curious about these foreign intruders. "The British Mission to Morocco" captures both the thrill and unpredictability that comes with venturing into uncharted territories for adventure and sport. It serves as a testament to Woodville's skillful craftsmanship and his ability to transport viewers back in time through his artistry. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we cannot help but be captivated by its rich narrative and timeless
