This photograph captures a rare and mesmerizing sight - an albino Indian/Spectacled/Asian/Binocellate Cobra with its head raised and hood spread. Taken at the London Zoo in September 1924, this image showcases the beauty and intensity of one of nature's most feared creatures. The snake's pure white scales contrast starkly against the dark background, emphasizing its ethereal appearance. With its head held high, it exudes a sense of power and authority. Its iconic hood is fully expanded, displaying intricate patterns that are both striking and intimidating. This historical snapshot offers us a glimpse into the world of reptiles from almost a century ago. The photographer, Frederick William Bond, skillfully captures every detail of this magnificent creature – from its sinuous body to its piercing eyes. As we observe this albino cobra from a side view, we can appreciate the elegance in its form as well as marvel at its deadly potential. This species belongs to the Elapidae family known for their potent venomous bites. Whether you have an interest in wildlife or simply admire photography that freezes moments in time, this print is sure to captivate your imagination.
