EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the serene beauty of European Bison Julia as she gracefully grazes on the lush green grass in her paddock at London Zoo. Taken on the 12th of August, 1926, by Frederick William Bond, this image showcases the magnificent presence of these vulnerable creatures also known as Wisent or European Wood Bison. Julia, born on July 7th, 1924, became a beloved resident of London Zoo until her passing on September 28th, 1948. Her legacy lives on through this timeless photograph that allows us to appreciate her majestic horns and observe her natural behavior in an enclosed environment. As visitors to the zoo gaze upon Julia's tranquil existence within her enclosure, they are reminded of the importance of preserving such remarkable species. The European Bison holds great significance in natural history and serves as a symbol for conservation efforts worldwide. This snapshot from the early twentieth century transports us back to a time when zoos played a vital role in educating and inspiring people about wildlife. Through Bond's lens, we witness not only Julia's grace but also our own connection with nature and its diverse inhabitants. Bridgeman Images presents this historical gem from their collection without any commercial intentions. It is an invitation to delve into our shared past and reflect upon our responsibility towards protecting these extraordinary creatures for generations to come.
