EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the thrilling climax of the London Hippodrome's Christmas production for 1903-04, titled "The Golden Princess and the Elephant Hunters." In this breathtaking scene, fourteen elephants make their way up a steep ramp, their massive forms dwarfed by the towering structure. With a sense of anticipation in the air, the animals reach the summit and take a moment to gather their strength before making the plunge. As the crowd holds its collective breath, the elephants slide down a chute and plunge into the arena's large water tank below. The impact sends waves crashing against the tank's sides, creating a mesmerizing spectacle for the audience. The elephants, undeterred by the cold water, emerge unscathed, their trunks curling up in triumph as they receive the applause of the cheering crowd. This photograph, taken in November 1904, offers a glimpse into the grandeur and excitement of the London Hippodrome during this era. The production, which featured a cast of both human performers and animals, was a testament to the innovative and daring spirit of the time. The image is a reminder of the unique role that live entertainment played in the lives of people during the early 20th century, offering a sense of wonder and adventure that continues to captivate us today.
