Lionesses

Our tremendous category of lionesses canvas prints gives the spotlight to the females of these amazing big cats. Lions live in a large group called a pride, where the number of lionesRead moreses can be anywhere from two to twenty. Logically, all females within a pride are usually sisters, aunts, nieces and so on. There is no rank hierarchy among them, as you will see in lionesses canvas prints, and no two are likely to be found together more than half of the time. All lionesses residents know one another and when they meet, the lion greeting ceremony of rubbing and low purring reaffirms their social ties. This beautiful relationship is a staple of the motifs in lionesses canvas prints. Although it might appear that these lionesses canvas prints are more suited for a domestic interior, the versatility of this cluster can also be applied to recreational spaces and even corporate facilities. All your selected lionesses canvas prints can be adjusted to match, or contrast, with your existing interior design, colour schemes and so forth.

Ferocity in lionesses canvas prints

A lot of people do not know that the females are actually the main hunters of the pride, while males only hunt when a big kill is involved or the females will not give him a free lunch! Lionesses usually hunt in a group where there is a higher chance of the kill being successful. "Just Hope" is a lionesses canvas print that displays this process. This fantastic scene shows the lionesses scouting and canvassing the area for a possible hunt in broad daylight even though they normally hunt at night. These sociable cats hunt together in order to control exclusive hunting grounds and to share food with their relatives and cubs. Even though lionesses are the primary hunters, it is still the male lion that gets to eat first, followed by the lionesses and the cubs get whatever is left. As you can see in lionesses canvas prints by Photowall, these gorgeous creatures really place high value on a sense of community. "Whats For Supper" and "The Drama Unfolds" is another lionesses canvas print that is related to the element of hunt.

Maternal love

Lionesses give birth about 4 months after conception with up to 4 cubs at a time, although litters of 2 or 3 are more common. Mothers of young cubs spend most of their time away from the pride, although they may join their companions for brief periods. Lionesses canvas prints like "Lion Mother with Cub" perfectly illustrate this chosen isolation. This is due to the fact that cubs are usually hidden in dense bush for approximately six weeks, when they are old enough to join the pride. During these six weeks the cubs rely entirely on their mother looking after them and feeding on their mother's milk. Cubs begin eating meat at about the age of six weeks, but continue to nurse until they are 6-7 months old and remain dependant on their mother for up to two years. This beautiful notion is rendered stunningly in items like "Happy", a spectacular lionesses canvas print that really warms the heart. These images are really suited for a family room, where you can share the love with your kids as well. Just imagine the delight they will express when seeing lionesses canvas prints like "Playing Cubs" as the focal point of your common area.

Lionesses canvas prints and their symbolic value

As a very diverse symbol, the lion often emanates common traits like majesty, strength, courage, justice, and many more. Commonly referred to as "the king of the beasts," it is a symbol of power and might, whereas the lioness is usually related to the Great Mother and protection. This caring and responsible nature can be witnessed throughout these lionesses canvas prints. The females of a pride not only provide food and shelter, but also nurture and affection. Even though the male might rule and protect them, it is still the lionesses that do the major lifting. Lionesses canvas prints can thus be the perfect gift for a mother, or any female relative for that matter. The strength, care and wisdom can be captured and displayed through a lionesses canvas print by Photowall. "Sunset Lioness" is a gorgeous example of a richly detailed photograph that can represent the aforementioned traits. If you are more inclined to something artistic, perhaps "Copper and Blue Lioness" or "Lioness Watercolor Portrait" might suit you.
