EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 19th century at the Jardin zoologique de Bruxelles, capturing a beautiful moment with Mr. Lebens and his entire family. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly the three adorable jumeaux (triplets) standing proudly alongside their parents. Their innocent faces radiate joy and curiosity as they explore the wonders of the zoo. The setting itself is enchanting, with lush greenery surrounding them and various animals in cages nearby. A dog cart can be seen in the background, hinting at an exciting adventure awaiting this lively family after their visit to the zoo. Louis-Pierre-Theophile Dubois de Nehaut skillfully captures this precious moment using a salted paper print technique from a paper negative, adding depth and texture to every detail. His mastery of photography transports us back in time, allowing us to witness this charming scene unfold before our eyes. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded of simpler times when families would gather together for leisurely outings amidst nature's beauty. It serves as a testament to the enduring bond between loved ones and evokes feelings of nostalgia for a bygone era. Displayed within The Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, this remarkable piece showcases not only Dubois de Nehaut's talent but also preserves an important part of Belgian heritage for generations to come.
