EDITORS COMMENTS
A Hippopotamus with Its Young at the Waterside, 1853 This photograph, taken in the mid-19th century, showcases a mother hippopotamus and her offspring peacefully basking at the water's edge. The image, a testament to the rich natural history of the African continent, was captured by an unknown photographer and is now available for viewing through Mary Evans Prints Online. The hippopotamus, or hippo, is a large, semi-aquatic mammal found in sub-Saharan Africa. These animals are known for their distinctive large mouths, which can open up to 150 degrees, and their powerful jaws, which can crush bones. Despite their intimidating appearance, hippos are herbivores and spend most of their day submerged in water to keep cool in the hot African climate. This photograph, taken in the 1850s, offers a rare glimpse into the lives of these fascinating creatures during a time when exploration and documentation of the natural world were at the forefront of scientific discovery. The mother hippo appears protective and attentive, keeping a watchful eye on her young as they playfully splash in the water. The image also provides a historical context, offering a glimpse into the past and the early days of photography. The photographic process in the mid-19th century was still in its infancy, and capturing such a detailed and clear image of a wild animal and its offspring was a remarkable achievement. In this photograph, we are reminded of the importance of preserving and documenting the natural world for future generations to appreciate and learn from. The mother hippo and her young, bathed in the golden light of the African sun, serve as a reminder of the beauty and wonder that exists in the natural world, and the importance of protecting it for generations to come.
