EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a heartwarming scene at Carl Hagenbecks Wonder Zoo and Big Circus in Olympia, London. The image shows chimpanzees and an orangutan gathered around a Christmas dinner table, enjoying a festive meal together. Taken by an English photographer in the early 20th century, this postcard from a private collection showcases the anthropomorphic nature of these incredible animals. Dressed in clothes that resemble human garments, they appear almost as if they are partaking in a traditional holiday celebration. The captivating portrait highlights the bond between humans and animals, as well as the entertainment value provided by zoos and circuses during that era. Carl Hagenbeck, known for his showmanship and animal training skills, created an environment where visitors could witness such delightful moments. While it is important to acknowledge that captivity raises ethical concerns regarding animal welfare, this particular image focuses on the innocent joy expressed by these creatures during what seems to be a special occasion. Overall, this photograph serves as both a historical document capturing early 20th-century entertainment culture and a reminder of our shared connection with other species. It invites us to appreciate the beauty of wildlife while also raising questions about our responsibility towards their well-being.
