About the Item

Black-and-white portrait of a group of Leopards sitting cuddled together on a hill in the savannah, photographed by Joachim Schmeisser in 2022. All prints are limited edition. Available in multiple sizes. High-end framing on request. All prints are done and signed by the artist. The collector receives an additional certificate of authenticity from the gallery. Joachim Schmeisser has been photographing endangered species for several years now. This beautiful black-and-white image depicts a group of young leopards lying in a cozy embrace on a hill in the savannah. Their sleek, spotted coats blend seamlessly with the dry grass surrounding them, creating a mesmerizing tableau of beauty and tranquility. With two animals standing guard while the others are cuddled together, the leopards exude an aura of familial affection and camaraderie. But beyond their endearing display lies a sobering reality. Despite their adaptability and elusive nature, leopards face numerous threats that have led to their status as an endangered species. Habitat loss, poaching, illegal wildlife trade, human-wildlife conflict, and prey depletion contribute to their decline. In the heartwarming scene on the hillside, the cuddling leopards serve as a poignant reminder of the beauty and fragility of life in the wild. Yet, their vulnerable status underscores the urgent need for conservation efforts to protect these magnificent creatures and ensure their survival for generations to come, something Joachim Schmeisser tirelessly promotes with his works. Majestic and fragile – Joachim Schmeisser’s wildlife photography is as complex as the reality before his lens. The German photographer works with African conservation agencies and trusts to portray and protect the animal kingdom. Schmeisser’s photographs of lions, rhinos, elephants, or cheetahs are not mere images but encounters with nature. Encounters that show not only the relationality of these majestic creatures but also the interdependencies of our ecosystem. Expansive skies, the soft tips of savanna grass, and the almost biblical light drenching Schmeisser’s scenes make his photography an intimate and emotional experience.
