EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Tutored Bear, 14th century" takes us back in time to medieval England. Created by an unknown artist and featured in Joseph Strutt's book "The Sports and Pastimes of the people of England" in 1833, this engraving showcases a peculiar practice from centuries ago. Intriguingly, it depicts a bear being taught to imitate human actions. The image portrays a man standing beside the chained bear, seemingly instructing it on how to mimic his gestures. This unusual concept raises questions about the relationship between humans and animals during that era. While we may find this scene cruel or even absurd today, it provides valuable insight into the mindset of people living in the 14th century. It serves as a reminder of how different our understanding of animal welfare is now compared to then. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of mystery and nostalgia to this historical artifact. The fine details captured by Strutt's engraving technique transport us directly into medieval times—when such sideshows were not uncommon forms of entertainment for country folk. As we contemplate this intriguing piece, let us reflect on how our perceptions have evolved over time and appreciate the progress made towards treating animals with kindness and respect.
