EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Arrival Of The German Steamer Abyssinia In New York Carried By Beasts, Onshore Transportation" by Achille Beltrame, takes us back to the bustling streets of early 20th century Manhattan. The vivid colors bring to life a scene that is both extraordinary and bizarre. As the German steamer Abyssinia docks in New York Harbor, it becomes clear that this arrival is unlike any other. Instead of using traditional methods for unloading cargo, the ship's deck is transformed into a menagerie of wild animals. Giraffes tower over the crowd while camels and polar bears roam freely alongside tigers and monkeys in their cages. The onlookers are filled with curiosity as they witness this dramatic spectacle unfold before them. Handlers and sailors work together to ensure the safe transport of these trained beasts onto American soil. It seems as though an entire zoo has been transported across the ocean. This print captures not only a moment in time but also highlights the fascination Americans had with exotic wildlife during this era. It serves as a reminder of how transportation played a crucial role in bringing new experiences and curiosities from distant lands to eager audiences. Beltrame's attention to detail brings each animal to life, making us feel like we are right there witnessing this incredible event firsthand. This lithograph truly encapsulates an era when travel was still filled with wonder and surprises awaited at every port.
