EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a lively scene from the Zoological Society's Gardens, or London Zoo, in Regent's Park during the summer of 1871. The image is filled with the excitement and curiosity of a large group of holidaymakers as they gather to witness the feeding of the majestic lions. The air is thick with anticipation as the keeper prepares to toss a piece of meat into the enclosure, inciting a frenzy among the carnivorous animals. The holidaymakers, dressed in their finest summer attire, are transfixed by the spectacle, some leaning precariously over the railings for a better view. The lush greenery of the park and the ornate ironwork of the enclosure add to the sense of otherworldliness and adventure. This historical image offers a glimpse into the past, when a day at the zoo was a popular outing for families and tourists alike, and the wonders of the natural world could be experienced up close and personal." "The engraving, dated 1871, is part of the ICN collection at Mary Evans Prints Online and is a testament to the rich history of London Zoo. It is a reminder of the importance of preserving and sharing our past, and the enduring fascination that animals hold for us as a species. The image is a valuable addition to any collection of historical prints or those with an interest in zoology, history, or the evolution of public entertainment." "This print is not to be used for commercial purposes and is available for import and download in various sizes and formats. It is a unique and intriguing addition to any home or office, and a conversation starter for visitors. Bring a piece of history into your space and transport yourself back in time to the wonders of the Zoological Society's Gardens in 1871.
