EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating black and white lithograph, titled "Zoological Gardens, A Catalogue of Duplicate Specimens, 1834" takes us on a journey back to the early twentieth century. This stunning piece of art is part of a private collection and showcases the intricate illustrations that once adorned The Zoological Society of London's publication. Created by an English School artist in the 1900s, this lithograph was featured in Henry Scherren's book "A Sketch of its Foundation and Development". The detailed catalogue provides a glimpse into the diverse range of animals housed within the zoological gardens during that era. The image transports us to a time when zoos were considered menageries, where exotic creatures from around the world were displayed for public fascination. Each animal depicted in this illustration represents one of many duplicate specimens found within these remarkable establishments. With its fine lines and delicate shading techniques characteristic of lithography, this print captures both scientific accuracy and artistic beauty. It serves as a testament to humanity's enduring curiosity about nature's wonders. As we gaze upon this historical artwork from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded not only of our past but also how far we have come in understanding and appreciating wildlife conservation.
