Barbary Deer Horns Paddock Stag Railed
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the majesty of a Barbary deer, a native of North Africa, residing in a French zoo around the turn of the 20th century. The large, regal male stag, identified as a colon, stands proudly inside a railed paddock, his large, curved horns adorned with intricate antler velvet. The deer's alert and inquisitive expression adds to the sense of connection between the animal and the viewer. The image is part of the extensive Boswell collection, which documents the evolution of French zoos from the old to the new era. The lantern slide, circa 1900, transports us back in time, allowing us to witness the beauty and wonder of these magnificent creatures as they were admired by generations past.
