EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving transports us back to the 19th century, capturing a significant moment in the history of zoology. The image showcases "The Walrus" a recent addition to the esteemed Collection of the Zoological Society in Regents Park, London. The finely detailed artwork allows us to marvel at this magnificent creature as it rests on a rocky surface, its massive body exuding power and grace. Its distinctive tusks are prominently displayed, adding an air of majesty to its already impressive presence. One can only imagine the excitement that must have filled the air when this walrus arrived at the London Zoo. As one of nature's most enigmatic creatures, it would have undoubtedly captured the attention and curiosity of both visitors and scientists alike. This engraving was originally featured in The Illustrated London News on November 16th, 1867 - a testament to its historical significance. Preserved within a private collection today, it serves as a reminder of our ongoing fascination with wildlife and our continuous efforts to understand and appreciate their place in our world. Through this image, we are transported into an era where scientific discovery was celebrated through artistry. It invites us to reflect upon how far we have come since then while reminding us that there is still much more left for us to explore and learn about these incredible creatures that share our planet.
