EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Chimpanzee, in the Gardens of the Zoological Society" takes us back to a bygone era at London Zoo. Created by an anonymous English School artist in the 19th century, this print offers a glimpse into the fascinating world of primates. The image showcases a majestic chimpanzee amidst the lush gardens of the Zoological Society. With its expressive eyes and intelligent gaze, it seems as though this primate is inviting us to explore its world. The attention to detail in this engraving is remarkable; every strand of fur and leaf on the trees has been meticulously captured. Originally published in The Illustrated London News on July 31st, 1852, this artwork provides insight into how society viewed animals during that time period. It serves as a reminder of our longstanding fascination with wildlife and our desire to understand these incredible creatures better. Now preserved within a private collection, this print allows us to appreciate both the artistic skill involved in its creation and the historical significance it holds. As we admire this piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported back in time to witness one moment frozen forever - an encounter between man and his closest animal relative: the chimpanzee.
