EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a significant moment at the Zoological Gardens in London during the 19th century. Titled "The Flitting" it depicts the careful process of relocating a majestic male tiger to his new quarters. The image showcases the expertise and precision required to handle such a powerful creature. In this scene, we witness a team of skilled individuals orchestrating the move with utmost caution. The tiger's massive presence is palpable as he is gently guided out of his current cage towards his spacious new enclosure. The tension in the air is almost tangible, highlighting both the danger and excitement surrounding this operation. The artist masterfully portrays not only the physical strength and beauty of this magnificent beast but also conveys an underlying sense of respect for its wild nature. This engraving serves as a testament to humanity's fascination with wildlife and our ongoing efforts to provide suitable habitats for these creatures within zoological gardens. "The Flitting" was originally published in The Graphic on January 29,1876, offering viewers an intimate glimpse into one particular moment at London Zoo that would have otherwise gone unnoticed by most visitors. Today, this print continues to captivate audiences, reminding us of our shared responsibility to protect and preserve Earth's diverse animal kingdom.
