Framed Antelope Prints
Antelope are like the deer of Africa. They eat grass, have horns on their head, and live in very large groups. Their main predators are lions, leopards, cheetahs, and Man.
But there are many people who do not want to hunt them, and instead capture them as framed antelope art.
Hunting with a camera is always better than hunting with an arrow. There is no other way to capture the majesties of this animal than by camera. In this framed antelope photograph, “Topi Antelope on Termite Mound, Maasai Mara, Kenya,” by Adam Jones and Danita Delamont, we see a moment where an antelope is standing on a termite mound, surveying its environment for predators. It is looking at the photographer, wondering who, or what, that strange creature is. Above is a clear blue sky free of clouds, and an open field, bringing a feeling of freedom to the picture.
Pronghorn are a type of antelope, which is found in America. The framed antelope painting simply called “Pronghorn” by Cory Carlson is a wonderful example of nature art which shows a group of antelope in their natural habitat. It appears to be a family of antelope, with one horned father, a mother, and two child antelopes walking next to them. It is an endearing example of how truly similar animals are to ourselves.
Africans have long drawn antelopes on their cave walls in simple shapes. These shapes have been put on canvas in the framed antelope artwork of “Playing Antelopes” by Raya. There are two antelopes drawn side-by-side like a yin-yang. They are going in opposite directions, but no doubt will come back together again. The viewer can only guess as to what game they are playing.
