EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Two enraged elephants on the rampage in London" by Meaulle, Fortune Louis depicts a scene of chaos and panic in the heart of England's capital city. The artwork, created as an illustration for Le Petit Parisien on 11 March 1900, showcases two powerful elephants causing havoc and destruction in London. The image captures the raw power and fury of these magnificent creatures as they rampage through the streets. Broken statues and damaged buildings serve as evidence of their unstoppable force. The botanical gardens, once a place of tranquility, now bear witness to this wild spectacle. Meaulle's artistic skill brings forth a range of emotions - anger, fear, and astonishment - that are palpable in every brushstroke. This piece not only highlights the danger posed by captive animals but also serves as a reminder of humanity's impact on nature. The presence of these enraged elephants symbolizes more than just their physical strength; it represents the seven deadly sins that can consume us all if left unchecked. Their rage becomes a reflection of our own inner turmoil and bitterness. As we gaze upon this remarkable work from the 19th century, we are reminded that art has always been a powerful medium for expressing complex emotions and societal issues. It is through such works that we gain insight into our past while contemplating our present actions towards wildlife conservation and animal welfare.
