EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken on 9th July 1924, we are transported back to a momentous encounter between the Regent of Abyssinia and the wonders of the zoo. The image captures an extraordinary meeting between two worlds, as Emperor Haile Selassie of Ethiopia explores the exotic inhabitants within the confines of a European zoo. The monochrome tones lend an air of timelessness to this snapshot from between the wars, evoking a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era. As one gazes upon this ethereal scene, it becomes evident that more than just animals are on display here; cultural exchange and curiosity intertwine in every frame. Emperor Haile Selassie's dignified presence amidst these foreign surroundings is both intriguing and thought-provoking. His visit to Europe was not merely symbolic but also served as an opportunity to foster diplomatic relations with other nations during a pivotal period in history. This remarkable photograph stands as a testament to the power of photography in capturing moments that transcend time. It offers us a glimpse into an era when borders were crossed, cultures collided, and humanity sought connection beyond its own boundaries. Preserved by Central News and now part of Europeana Photography collection, this image serves as a reminder that even amidst political tensions and global shifts, there exists beauty in our shared experiences - whether they be encounters at zoos or connections forged across continents.
