HUNTING - WILD TURKEY, 1886. Hunting the wild turkey - The love-sick gobbler lured to ruin

EDITORS COMMENTS
. This wood engraving from 1886 takes us back in time to witness a thrilling hunting expedition in the heart of an American winter forest. In this scene, a group of skilled hunters braves the snowy landscape, armed with their rifles and determination. The focus of the print is on a magnificent wild turkey known as the "love-sick gobbler". This proud bird, driven by its amorous desires, becomes vulnerable to human pursuit. Its vibrant feathers stand out against the white backdrop as it unknowingly approaches its demise. The artist skillfully captures both the beauty and danger inherent in this hunt. The intricate details of each man's attire and equipment showcase their expertise and commitment to this age-old tradition. As they navigate through nature's icy terrain, one can almost feel their anticipation building. This wood engraving serves as a reminder of our connection with nature and our primal instincts as hunters. It transports us back to an era when survival often depended on such skills. Displayed proudly on any wall or mantelpiece, this historic print invites viewers into a world where man confronts nature head-on for sustenance and adventure. It sparks curiosity about past traditions while honoring those who came before us – men who ventured into untamed landscapes seeking not only food but also camaraderie and exhilaration that only hunting could provide.
