EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the Jardin zoologique de Bruxelles in the mid-19th century. Created by Louis-Pierre-Théophile Dubois de Nehaut, a talented French photographer, this image captures the essence of this renowned Belgian zoo. The scene unfolds with an exquisite landscape featuring a serene lake nestled within the lush surroundings of Brussels. The composition showcases nature's beauty while also hinting at man-made structures that blend harmoniously into the scenery. The intricate details captured by Dubois de Nehaut transport us to a time when photography was still in its early stages, yet already capable of capturing such breathtaking moments. As we gaze upon this salted paper print from a paper negative, our imagination is ignited with thoughts of visitors strolling through these historic zoological gardens. We can almost hear their laughter and feel their excitement as they explore the diverse array of animal species housed within these grounds. Preserved by The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this photograph serves as both a testament to Belgium's rich heritage and an artistic achievement in itself. It allows us to appreciate not only the natural wonders found within Jardin zoologique de Bruxelles but also highlights how photography has evolved over time. Let this remarkable image transport you back in time and inspire you to discover more about the fascinating history behind one of Europe's most beloved zoos.
