EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, taken in September 1921 by Frederick William Bond, we are transported back in time to the Mappin Terraces at London Zoo. The image captures a magnificent Brown Bear sitting up proudly in its enclosure, showcasing the raw power and beauty of this majestic creature. The bear's intense gaze is fixed on something beyond our view, perhaps captivated by an interesting sight or lost in deep contemplation. Its thick fur glistens under the sunlight that filters through the surrounding trees, adding a touch of ethereal magic to the scene. The Mappin Terraces provide a naturalistic setting for these carnivorous animals, allowing them to roam freely while still being safely observed by visitors. This particular enclosure perfectly showcases the harmony between nature and captivity as it provides ample space for the bear to move around comfortably. As we admire this remarkable snapshot frozen in time, we can't help but feel a sense of awe and respect for these incredible creatures. Their presence reminds us of our connection with wildlife and serves as a gentle reminder of their importance within our natural world. This vintage photograph from Bridgeman Images not only offers us a glimpse into London Zoo's rich history but also invites us to appreciate the wonders of nature that surround us every day.
