EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a glimpse of the historic Exeter Change in 1826, showcasing The Royal Menagerie at the Exeter Exchange on London's Strand. In this bustling cityscape, we witness a unique form of entertainment that was popular during the 19th century. Iron cages containing majestic lions, fierce tigers, and playful monkeys can be seen occupying the upper floors of this grand building. The image transports us back to a time when animal cruelty was unfortunately prevalent. Despite their confinement in small rooms, the roaring of these magnificent creatures could be heard echoing through the streets below, occasionally startling passing horses and pedestrians alike. Edward Walford's publication "Old and New London: A Narrative of Its History, Its People, and Its Places" provides valuable insight into this scene from England's past. The Exeter Change stood as both an architectural marvel and a tourist attraction in its day. Visitors would flock to witness these exotic animals up close while exploring one of London's most vibrant neighborhoods. Although now demolished since 1829, this photograph serves as a poignant reminder of our evolving relationship with animals over time. It invites contemplation about how far we have come in terms of animal welfare and reminds us to appreciate the progress made towards creating more compassionate environments for all living beings within zoological gardens today.
