EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "The Lyre Bird, in the Zoological Societys Gardens, Regents Park" takes us back to the enchanting world of London's renowned zoo in the 19th century. Created by Friedrich Wilhelm Keyl and featured in The Illustrated London News on May 25,1867, this print showcases a magnificent lyre bird amidst the lush surroundings of Regents Park. The lyre bird itself is a true marvel of nature with its intricate plumage resembling the shape of a lyre. Its vibrant colors and delicate details are beautifully captured by Keyl's skilled hand. As we gaze upon this image, we can almost hear the melodious songs that these birds are famous for. The setting within the Zoological Society's Gardens adds an air of grandeur to this scene. Established in 1828, these gardens were not only home to various species but also served as a place for scientific study and public education about wildlife. Through this engraving, we catch a glimpse into Victorian society's fascination with ornithology and their desire to showcase exotic creatures from around the world. It reminds us of our enduring curiosity about nature and our constant quest to understand and appreciate its wonders. This print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a historical document, transporting us back in time to witness one small moment within the vast tapestry of human-animal interactions at London Zoo.
