EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment in history at Whiteleys Farms, where two majestic Great Danes were sold to an Indian Prince. Taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, this print is now part of a private collection. The image transports us back to a time when orchards, gardens, and farms thrived under the ownership of Mr. William Whiteley of Westbourne Grove, London. The dogs stand proudly beside each other, their regal stature befitting their noble lineage. Their sleek coats glisten against the backdrop of lush greenery. This photograph was originally featured as an illustration for Alfred Barnard's book "Orchards and Gardens Ancient and Modern". It served as a visual representation of the grandeur that could be found within Mr. Whiteley's vast estate. As we admire this snapshot from the past, we can't help but wonder about the Indian Prince who acquired these magnificent creatures. What drew him to these particular Great Danes? Did they become cherished companions or symbols of his own status? Through this image, we are reminded not only of the historical significance surrounding Whiteleys Farms but also of our fascination with animals and their connection to human society throughout time.
