Leopard's Gaze, Antarctica by Paul Nicklen - Contemporary Wildlife Photography

2006

About the Item

Leopard’s Gaze Antarctica, 2006 24 in x 36 in (61 x 91.4 cm) Edition of 20 - $3,500 31 in x 46.5 in (78.7 x 118.1 cm) Edition of 15 40 in x 60 in (101.6 x 152.4 cm) Edition of 10 "Beneath the faint glow of the Antarctic sky, I allowed the swirling current to slowly bring me face to face with this beautiful female leopard seal drifting on a pan of sea ice. As I drew near, she lifted herself up high, stretching her massive body and giving me a clear view of her spotted coat. I like the challenge of exposing the softer side of animals with undeserved reputations as “vicious” predators. If I can help reveal their multifaceted natures and unique stories, they suddenly become fellow living beings we can empathize with and understand." - Paul Nicklen Paul Nicklen's Biography: Paul Nicklen (Canadian) is a visual artist and marine biologist who has documented both the beauty and the plight of our planet for over 20 years. Paul’s photography informs and connects by creating an emotional bond with wild subjects in extreme conditions. After a 20-year career of photographing for journalistic publications like National Geographic, Paul’s perpetuating dream is to revisit his archives for the true artistic gems and release them to the world. His ongoing journey is to continue photographing intimate, evocative, powerful subject matter to create a thought-provoking body of work. Paul hopes his viewers look into the eyes of the animals in his photographs and fall in love with their vulnerability. In addition to being one of the world’s most renowned nature photographers, Paul is a well-known speaker, TED Talks participant, author, and National Geographic Fellow. In the past two decades, Paul has collaborated with scientists, filmmakers, conservationists, and explorers to create awareness and inspire action for global issues such as climate change. Paul has garnered more than 30 of the highest awards given to any photographer in his field, earning a global following of celebrities, conservationists, and fans.
