EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the Tower of London's Royal Menagerie as it appeared in 1820. The Royal Menagerie, dating all the way back to the 13th century, was a fascinating collection of exotic animals that delighted visitors from far and wide. This wood engraving, created in England during the 1880s, beautifully captures the interior of this historic attraction. In this image, we see a bustling scene filled with people from all walks of life. Families gather together for a day of recreation and exploration within the towering walls of this ancient fortress. The atmosphere is one of excitement and wonder as visitors marvel at creatures they have only ever heard about through stories or seen in illustrations. The Tower itself stands tall and majestic in the background, its imposing presence adding an air of grandeur to this unique setting. It serves as a reminder that beyond its role as a castle and stronghold, it also housed these magnificent beasts for centuries. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we can't help but imagine what it must have been like to witness such an extraordinary menagerie firsthand. This enchanting wood engraving allows us to step into history and experience a moment when humans marveled at nature's wonders right here within these ancient walls.
