EDITORS COMMENTS
Consul the Chimp: The Star Attraction of London's Hippodrome (1903) This photograph, taken by the renowned Illustrated London News Ltd in October 1903, showcases Consul the Chimp, the extraordinary star attraction at London's Hippodrome. Consul, a charismatic chimpanzee, was a crowd favorite and a testament to the unique blend of human and animal entertainment that captivated audiences during this era. Dressed in a dapper suit and holding a small suitcase, Consul exudes an air of confidence and sophistication. His expressive eyes and curious gaze engage the viewer, inviting us into his world. The Hippodrome, a grand entertainment venue located in Leicester Square, London, was the perfect stage for Consul's impressive performances. His weekly earnings of 200 pounds were a testament to his popularity and the value placed on his talents. Consul's act, which included acrobatics, dancing, and even playing the organ, left audiences in awe. His ability to mimic human behavior and adapt to various situations made him an instant hit. The photograph captures a moment in time when the line between human and animal entertainment was blurred, and the fascination with the natural world and its capabilities was at an all-time high. This photograph is a reminder of the rich history of entertainment and the unique role that animals, such as Consul the Chimp, played in shaping the cultural landscape of London during the early 20th century.
