About the Item
Etching in laid paper.
A highly detailed etching by Léon Gambard, depicting a majestic herd of African elephants gathered at a watering hole under a vast, expansive sky. The animals are shown in various poses—drinking, bathing, and interacting—imbued with naturalistic detail that reflects Gambard’s mastery of the etching technique and his interest in exotic themes.
The composition, with its balance of still water, lively fauna, and sweeping horizon, captures the grandeur and serenity of African wildlife.
Published in L’Art with printing by Salmon, Paris, this work is characteristic of the late 19th-century French fascination with Orientalist and natural history subjects.
Paper with overall time-toning and scattered foxing, particularly in the margins. Central image remains sharp with strong contrasts and fine detail preserved.
