This engraving titled "Prince Alfred's Stag, from Singapore, in the Zoological Society's Gardens" takes us back to the vibrant city of London in the 1870s. The image showcases a majestic deer known as Prince Alfred's Stag, originating all the way from Singapore. The enchanting creature stands gracefully amidst the lush greenery of the Zoological Society's Gardens. Its antlers reach towards the sky with an air of regality and strength. This exotic visitor from Southeast Asia has captured the attention and admiration of both locals and visitors alike. The illustration was originally featured in The Illustrated London News on June 11th, 1870, providing readers with a glimpse into this extraordinary addition to London Zoo. It serves as a testament to humanity's fascination with wildlife from distant lands during that era. As we gaze upon this historical print today, it not only transports us back in time but also reminds us of our enduring curiosity about nature and its diverse inhabitants. Through art like this engraving by Thomas W. Wood, we can appreciate how cultures intertwine through shared experiences and appreciation for beauty found across continents. Let this image be a reminder that even centuries ago, people were captivated by creatures foreign to their own lands – bridging gaps between nations through mutual awe for our planet’s magnificent biodiversity.
