This is the original preliminary artwork created for the 1983 Bantam paperback edition of the 1944 book written by hunter-naturalist Jim Corbett, detailing his experiences in the Kumaon region of India. (I show the published book for reference) Very much like the final art, only a tiny bit less graphic - the focus here being on the tiger, and not his prey. Great visual effect, in acrylic on illustration board, 7" x 4.25 and titled on the back. If you would like a letter of authenticity from the estate on this one, happy to provide it.
