EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a rare sight at the London Zoo in July 1922. In the image, we see an albino Old World Monkey from the genus Ceropithecus, donning a cozy sweater. The monkey's unique appearance immediately draws our attention as it stands out against its dark surroundings. The photographer, Frederick William Bond, skillfully captured this moment of natural history for the Zoological Society of London. The fluffy sweater adds an unexpected touch to this primate's attire, giving it a charming and endearing quality. Albinism is a genetic condition that results in the absence or reduction of pigment in animals' skin, hair, and eyes. This particular albino monkey showcases its striking features with pale fur and piercing red eyes. Its presence at the zoo provides visitors with a rare opportunity to witness such an extraordinary creature up close. As we observe this remarkable mammal through Bond's lens, we are reminded of both the beauty and diversity found within our animal kingdom. This photograph serves as a testament to the importance of zoos in preserving endangered species like these Old World Monkeys. Bridgeman Images has preserved this historical snapshot for us to appreciate nature's wonders while also reminding us of our responsibility to protect these vulnerable creatures for future generations.
