EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and whimsical chromolitho print, titled "Elephants and flamingoes" captures the imagination with its playful depiction of animals in a zoo. Created by Richard Andre in the late 19th century, this artwork showcases his talent for combining humor and satire. In this delightful scene, elephants take on unexpected roles as they interact with their feathered friends, the flamingoes. The inverted perspective adds to the charm of the composition, inviting viewers into a world where animals engage in amusing activities that defy convention. The illustration was originally created as part of an illustrated book called "Dream of the Zoo" published by Perry & Co around 1880. It offers a glimpse into Victorian-era zoological gardens where children could marvel at exotic creatures while indulging in their own fantasies. With its vivid colors and intricate details, this print appeals to both young and old alike. It serves as a reminder that art has no age limit when it comes to sparking joy and wonderment. Whether displayed in a child's bedroom or an art lover's collection, "Elephants and flamingoes" is sure to bring smiles and laughter wherever it is seen. This piece from Bridgeman Images invites us to embrace our imagination and appreciate the lighter side of life through the lens of these endearing animal characters.
