EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by Frederick William Bond in June 1925, transports us back to a time when the London Zoo was home to an elegant Eland. The majestic creature stands proudly in its paddock, showcasing its full length and commanding presence. The historical significance of this image is evident as it captures a moment frozen in time. The Zoological Society of London played host to this beautiful animal, allowing visitors to marvel at its grace and beauty within the confines of captivity. The Eland's impressive horns are prominently displayed, adding to its regal appearance. Its side view allows us to appreciate every detail of this captive mammal - from the texture of its coat to the strength exuded through each hoofed step. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded of the importance placed on preserving wildlife for educational purposes during that era. This particular species belongs to the bovidae family and shares similarities with oryx and other common mammals found in captivity. Frederick William Bond's skillful photography brings out the essence of this magnificent creature while also capturing a piece of history within London Zoo's walls. It serves as a testament not only to his talent but also highlights our fascination with animals held captive for study and admiration. This remarkable print from Fine Art Finder allows us a glimpse into an era long gone but forever preserved through artistry and documentation.
