"Cage: A Captivating Collection of Captives" Step into the mesmerizing world of cages, where creatures big and small find themselves confined yet fascinating. From the newly unveiled Reptile House at London Zoo by G H Davis to Gabriel Cornelius Ritter von Max's thought-provoking painting, "The Lion's Bride, " cages have long been a subject of intrigue.

This lively creature exemplifies how some beings thrive despite being contained. Whether it be for protection or confinement, cages offer glimpses into worlds both familiar and extraordinary.
