EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of Emmanuel Fremiet's masterpiece, "Young Elephant Caught in a Trap" as it stands proudly in front of the magnificent Trocadero Palace. The artwork itself, created in 1878, depicts a young elephant caught in the clutches of a trap, symbolizing both vulnerability and strength. The juxtaposition of this powerful sculpture against the backdrop of the grandiose palace creates an intriguing contrast. The Trocadero Palace, constructed for the Universal Exposition held in Paris that same year, serves as a testament to human ingenuity and architectural brilliance. The image transports us back to 1888 when Adolphe Giraudon skillfully captured this moment with his camera lens. The timeless beauty of this photograph allows us to appreciate not only Fremiet's artistry but also Giraudon's talent for preserving history through photography. As we gaze upon this scene, our eyes are drawn to the baby elephant's delicate trunk reaching out towards its surroundings. It reminds us of innocence and curiosity amidst adversity. This enchanting creature seems almost Parisian itself – embodying elegance and grace within its wild nature. Displayed at Musee d'Orsay in Paris today, this iconic work continues to inspire awe and contemplation among visitors from around the world. Through Bridgeman Images' print reproduction, we can now bring home a piece of artistic history that speaks volumes about resilience and compassion towards all living beings.
