EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1890, offering a glimpse into the bustling scene at Central Park Zoo in New York City. The image depicts the meticulous process of moving animals from their winter quarters to their summer abodes within the zoo grounds. Created by Frederick Stuart Church, a renowned American artist known for his detailed engravings, this line engraving beautifully captures the essence of late 19th-century city life. In this snapshot of history, we see workers diligently transporting various creatures across Central Park. A majestic peacock struts alongside an imposing elephant while a curious hippopotamus gazes out from its enclosure. Men clad in winter attire navigate through the park's pathways as they carefully handle crates containing these magnificent beings. The attention to detail in Church's work is evident as he skillfully portrays each animal with precision and grace. From the crocodile lurking beneath its wooden crate to the vibrant feathers adorning the peacock's regal form, every element comes alive on paper. This artwork transports us back in time, allowing us to witness a moment when transportation was not just limited to humans but extended to our fellow inhabitants of this world. It serves as a reminder that even amidst urban landscapes like Central Park, efforts were made over a century ago to provide sanctuary and care for these remarkable creatures.
