EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to 19th century East London, where a bustling shop called Jambach's served as the go-to destination for all things wild and exotic. The engraving beautifully captures the essence of this renowned dealer in wild animals, showcasing a scene filled with stuffed creatures, skeletons, and an array of fascinating curiosities. As we delve into the image, our eyes are immediately drawn to the charismatic figure of Charles Jamrach himself. With his sleeves rolled up and a determined expression on his face, he appears to be meticulously cleaning one of his prized possessions – perhaps an exquisite kangaroo or an elegant ostrich. The atmosphere inside Jambach's is alive with activity. We catch glimpses of employees feeding some of these extraordinary creatures while others carefully handle delicate specimens. The air is thick with curiosity and wonder as customers browse through this veritable menagerie. It is impossible not to marvel at the diversity displayed within these walls – from majestic lions to graceful gazelles; each creature tells its own unique story. This enchanting print transports us back in time when such encounters were rare and reserved only for those who dared venture into Jambach's realm. Through this evocative image, we are reminded that even in bustling cities like London, there existed pockets where dreams could come true – places like Jambach's that brought a touch of untamed wilderness into people's lives.
