EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a regal moment in the history of London Zoo. Taken by Frederick William Bond in August 1927, it showcases a magnificent Crowned/Sahel/West African Bush Duiker standing tall within its enclosure. The duiker's striking presence is enhanced by its majestic crown-like horns, which give it an air of nobility. The image provides a rare glimpse into the world of hoofed mammals from West Africa, specifically the Sahel region. With its full-length view and side profile, we are able to appreciate the grace and beauty of this remarkable creature. Its alert stance suggests both curiosity and confidence as it gazes out towards the viewer. As we delve into this historical photograph, we are transported back to a time when capturing such images required skillful photography techniques. The monochromatic tones add depth and texture to the scene, emphasizing every detail - from the fine hairs on the duiker's body to its expressive eyes. Preserved for posterity by Bridgeman Images, this print serves as a testament to our fascination with wildlife throughout history. It reminds us of our connection with nature and how zoological institutions like London Zoo have played a vital role in educating and inspiring generations about these incredible creatures.
