EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print showcases the mesmerizing beauty and inherent danger of two venomous reptiles - the Indian cobra and pit viper. Created by an anonymous European School artist in the 19th century, this artwork is a part of a series on poisonous snakes. The image transports us to India, where snake charmers skillfully handle these deadly creatures. The vibrant colors bring to life the rich cultural heritage of India, with its traditional costumes and intricately woven baskets used for capturing snakes. The spectacled cobra takes center stage, its hood flared in a display of intimidation. Its distinctive markings are meticulously captured, highlighting both its elegance and lethal potential. Alongside it slithers the pit viper, known for its potent venom and camouflaged scales that blend seamlessly into its surroundings. This educational card serves as a reminder of the dangers posed by these reptiles while also celebrating their natural beauty. It offers viewers a glimpse into Indian culture and traditions associated with snake charming. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we cannot help but marvel at nature's ability to create such awe-inspiring yet perilous creatures. This print is not only visually stunning but also serves as an important tool for understanding and appreciating wildlife diversity around the world.
