Artwork description:
White Lions are not albino lions. Instead the white colour is caused by a recessive gene known as chinchilla or colour inhibitor. They vary from blonde through to near white. This colouration give white lions a distinct disadvantage in nature because they are highly visible which gives them away to their prey and makes them an attractive target for hunters.
Warm tone print with vintage border.
Materials used:
Giclée print using pigment inks on Hahnemühle Baryta FB paper.
