EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "La Menagerie Hagenbeck" takes us back to the 19th century in Germany. The image, captured by an unknown European photographer, showcases a moment frozen in time at this renowned zoo. The photograph is part of a private collection and was originally featured as an illustration for Jules Huret's book "L'Allemagne Moderne" published in 1913. It offers a glimpse into the early 20th-century history of Europe before the outbreak of World War I. In this mesmerizing scene, we witness the diversity of wildlife that once inhabited La Menagerie Hagenbeck. Giant tortoises gracefully roam their enclosure, capturing our imagination with their ancient presence. The composition evokes a sense of wonderment and curiosity about these magnificent creatures. As we delve into this piece from Bridgeman Images' archives, it reminds us not only of Germany's rich cultural heritage but also its contribution to zoological advancements during that era. La Menagerie Hagenbeck played a significant role in shaping modern zoos as we know them today. This remarkable photograph transports us back to a time when nature conservation and appreciation were gaining momentum across Europe. It serves as both a historical document and an artistic testament to humanity's fascination with the animal kingdom.
