EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing late 19th century lantern slide depicts an exhilarating moment of survival and quick thinking. The image captures two men, dressed in what appears to be colonial attire, frantically running around a large barrel as a fierce tiger relentlessly pursues them. The men's determined expressions and the tiger's menacing growl convey a sense of danger and urgency. The scene is reminiscent of the popular Jules Verne novel "The Jungle Book," where Mowgli and his companions outwit dangerous animals in the jungle. However, this photograph is believed to be from real life, showcasing the thrill and excitement of the unknown and the natural world during the late 1800s. Lantern slides like this one were used for educational and entertainment purposes during presentations using a lantern projector. The audience would gather around to witness the moving images, transported to far-off lands and exciting adventures. This particular slide would have undoubtedly captured the imagination of the viewers, who may have been fascinated by the exotic and the dangerous. The precise origin and context of this photograph remain a mystery, but it offers a glimpse into the past, providing a fascinating insight into the world of the late 19th century. The men's daring escape from the tiger around the barrel serves as a reminder of the courage and resourcefulness of people in the face of danger, and the allure of the natural world that continues to captivate us today.
