EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of "The Associations Celebrated and Extensive Menagerie and Aviary from their Zoological Institute in the City of New York, 1835". Measuring an impressive 282.6x197.5 cm, this extra large poster is a true work of art. Printed on four sheets of wove paper that have been carefully pasted together at the seams, this lithograph showcases rows of vignettes, each printed from separate blocks. The level of detail is astounding as it depicts various subjects of natural history exhibited at the popular and fashionable resort during the winter season of 1834-5. The image transports us back in time to a world where elephants roamed freely alongside other magnificent creatures. It serves as both an advertisement and publicity for this grand menagerie, enticing viewers with its vibrant colors and intricate engravings. Displayed proudly at Shelburne Museum in Vermont, USA, this print was generously gifted by the Harry T. Peters Sr. Family. Its historical significance cannot be overstated as it provides a glimpse into a bygone era when zoos were not only places for entertainment but also centers for education and exploration. As we admire this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder's collection courtesy of Bridgeman Images, we are reminded once again that art has the power to transport us through time and space while preserving our rich cultural heritage.
