Artist Richard Andre brings to life a whimsical scene where zoo animals take on a new form of entertainment - cycling! From elephants to hippos, polar bears to rhinos, these anthropomorphic creatures pedal their way through the zoo with joy and enthusiasm.
This charming illustration, originally featured in Black & White magazine in 1892, showcases the playful side of these majestic animals as they embrace the sport of cycling. The dandy horses and bicycles add a touch of nostalgia to this delightful scene, reminding us of simpler times when leisurely bike rides were all the rage.
As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to a world where zoos were not just places for observation but also for fun and enjoyment. The zookeepers look on with amusement as their charges partake in this unique activity, creating a sense of camaraderie between man and beast.
