Joachim Schmeisser
Lion King

About the Item

Ed. 3/10, museum archival print. Includes black frame. For years, Joachim Schmeisser has been photographing the last giants of Africa at close range, creating exceptionally intimate portraits of species threatened with extinction. His striking images are timeless works that can be interpreted on different levels: as depictions of a distant past or as iconic memories in a not too distant future in which we can only admire these majestic creatures in zoos. They are both an homage and a final warning – visual revelations that sharpen our clouded view of nature in all its infinite complexity as well as recognizing what treasures we might irretrievably lose. With his breathtaking black-and-white images, Schmeisser brings us up close to these extraordinary animals, creating a powerful document of nature’s splendor and fragility.
