EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century engraving, titled "Advertisement for Royal Menagerie, Exeter Change" takes us back in time to the vibrant streets of London. The image showcases a bustling scene outside the famous Exeter Change building, where an extraordinary collection of exotic animals awaits curious onlookers. The advertisement proudly displays a diverse array of creatures that would have undoubtedly fascinated Victorian society. Majestic lions and leopards command attention with their regal presence, while a towering elephant and imposing rhinoceros captivate with their sheer size and strength. A peculiar vulture perches atop the signboard, seemingly observing passersby with its keen eyes. Amidst this wild spectacle are more unusual inhabitants - sloths leisurely hanging from branches and pelicans gracefully gliding through the air. Even camels make an appearance, including the rare Bactrian camel known for its distinctive double hump. The Royal Menagerie promises not only entertainment but also a glimpse into distant lands and untamed nature. This enchanting print transports us to an era when such encounters were reserved for those who could afford these extravagant pleasures. As we admire this historical artifact from our private collection, we can't help but marvel at how advertising has evolved over time. Yet even today, advertisements continue to captivate our imagination by showcasing the beauty and wonder of wildlife in all its forms – just as they did centuries ago at Exeter Change's Royal Menagerie.
