EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "LONDON: MENAGERIE, c1850. The Happy Family" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of London during the mid-19th century. Created by Henry George Hine, an English cartoonist, this engraving captures a whimsical scene filled with various animals and their human companions. In the foreground of the image, we see a group of men proudly displaying their unique pets. A showman stands tall holding an umbrella while surrounded by his extraordinary collection - an owl perched on his shoulder, a feline friend resting on his arm, and a loyal dog faithfully at his side. These unlikely companions create a sense of wonder and amusement for all who pass by. The street is alive with activity as people stop to marvel at this peculiar sight. Children point excitedly while adults exchange smiles at the joyous spectacle before them. It is evident that this menagerie has captured the attention and patronage of even Her Majesty herself. Henry George Hine's artistic style shines through in this delightful cartoon-like depiction. His attention to detail brings each character to life, from the intricate patterns on their clothing to their expressive faces hidden beneath hats. This enchanting print serves as a reminder of London's rich history and its fascination with exotic creatures during Victorian times. It invites us into a world where humans coexist harmoniously with animals, forming what can only be described as "The Happy Family. "
