EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph titled "A Wild Stampede, the Effect of a South African Hail-Storm" transports us to the heart of a dramatic natural event. Created by John Charlton in 1902, this print captures the chaotic scene that unfolded during a hailstorm in South Africa. The artist skillfully depicts the sheer power and intensity of nature as horses gallop wildly amidst crashing hailstones. The composition is filled with movement and energy, as the horses race across an open plain, their manes flowing in the wind. The dark storm clouds loom ominously overhead, contrasting with the bright flashes of lightning that illuminate the scene. Each horse appears both majestic and terrified, their eyes wide with fear as they try to escape from this sudden onslaught. Charlton's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; he expertly conveys not only the physical impact of each hailstone but also its emotional effect on these magnificent creatures. This artwork serves as a reminder of our vulnerability in the face of nature's fury and our deep connection with animals. Now preserved within a private collection, this lithograph continues to captivate viewers with its raw power and evocative imagery. It stands as a testament to Charlton's talent for capturing fleeting moments and immortalizing them on paper for generations to come.
