EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1900, captures the serene beauty of a tan and white horse at the zoo. The horse stands calmly in its paddock, its coat glowing in the soft light that filters through the trees. The scene is reminiscent of a tranquil pastoral setting, with the horse seemingly at peace in its natural surroundings. The image is part of the Boswell Collection, Box 175, held at Mary Evans Prints Online. The collection, which dates back to the late 19th and early 20th centuries, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a record of the world as it was over a century ago. The horse's paddock is surrounded by a low fence, and in the background, a lantern can be seen, hinting at the passing of the day and the approaching twilight. The horse's large, expressive eyes seem to gaze directly into the soul, conveying a sense of intelligence and curiosity. The horse's tan and white coat is a striking contrast against the lush green grass of the paddock, and its powerful, muscular form is a testament to the strength and grace of this magnificent animal. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the enduring connection between humans and horses, and the joy and wonder that they have brought to our lives for centuries. This photograph is not only a beautiful work of art but also a valuable historical document, offering a glimpse into the past and the world of the zoo over a century ago. It is a reminder of the importance of preserving our history and the role that photographs play in capturing and sharing the stories of the past.
