EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "The Zoological Garden, Brussels, 1854" transports us back to the enchanting world of 19th-century Belgium. Taken by the talented French photographer Louis-Pierre-Théophile Dubois de Nehaut, this salted paper print captures a mesmerizing landscape within the bustling city of Brussels. In this image, we find ourselves immersed in the tranquil beauty of nature juxtaposed against urban surroundings. A stepladder stands tall amidst lush greenery, serving as a silent witness to the harmonious coexistence between man-made structures and wildlife. The Zoological Garden itself remains hidden from view but its presence is felt through the serene ambiance it creates. Dubois de Nehaut's keen eye for detail allows us to appreciate both the grandeur of architecture and the delicate balance between civilization and wilderness. This photograph not only showcases his technical mastery but also serves as a testament to his ability to capture fleeting moments that evoke emotions within viewers. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from The Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, we are reminded of how photography has preserved our heritage throughout centuries. It invites us to reflect on our connection with nature and encourages us to cherish these precious spaces where humans and animals can coexist harmoniously – just like they did in Brussels' zoological gardens over a century ago.
