EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the late 1890s, captures the unexpected sight of a two-humped camel wandering the streets of London, England. The image is part of the Boswell Collection, a fascinating record of a day trip to the bustling city during an era of great exploration and discovery. Camels, with their distinctive humped backs, are even-toed ungulates belonging to the genus Camelus. The two surviving species of camels are the dromedary, or one-humped camel (C. dromedarius), native to the Middle East and the Horn of Africa, and the bactrian, or two-humped camel (C. bactrianus), found in Central Asia. Despite their exotic origins, camels were occasionally brought to Europe for exhibition and entertainment. In this photograph, the camel, likely a bactrian, seems out of place amidst the Victorian architecture and horse-drawn carriages. The photograph's intriguing composition invites us to imagine the story behind this unusual encounter, as we ponder the camel's journey from the deserts of Asia to the cobblestone streets of London.
