EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1888 in Bone, Algeria. The image showcases an extraordinary moment captured by an unknown photographer, featuring Mr M. Fernolet fearlessly feeding crocodiles in a menagerie. In this snapshot from history, we witness the remarkable bravery of Mr Fernolet as he holds his ground amidst these formidable reptiles. His confident stance and steady gaze reveal a man who possesses both courage and respect for these wild creatures. The setting itself is intriguing - a menagerie in Bone, Algeria - offering us a glimpse into the exotic world of Victorian-era wildlife exhibitions. This unique concept allowed people to experience firsthand encounters with animals from distant lands, bringing them face-to-face with nature's wonders. As we delve deeper into this photograph, it becomes evident that it represents more than just one man's daring act. It symbolizes humanity's eternal fascination with the animal kingdom and our desire to conquer our fears by establishing control over untamed beasts. Though the creator remains unknown, their skillful composition has immortalized this moment for generations to come. Through this illustration published in The Graphic newspaper volume 38 during July-December 1888, we are transported back to a time when exploration and discovery were paramount. This print serves as a testament not only to Mr M. Fernolet's audacity but also to the enduring allure of capturing fleeting moments that transcend time itself.
