EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "Origin Species: CH Bennett, Dog - Servant," is a satirical take on Charles Darwin's groundbreaking theory of evolution, "On the Origin of Species." In this photograph, we witness the evolution of an old, faithful male servant from an old dog. The servant, depicted in the foreground, is shown carrying a grand salver, a sign of his dedication and service to his master. As we move through the various stages of the image, we see the servant's transformation unfold. In the second panel, the salver begins to take on the appearance of a dog dish, reflecting the servant's growing resemblance to his canine ancestors. By the third panel, the servant has fully morphed into an old dog, carrying a mere plate of bones - a reward for a constant life of service. This thought-provoking photograph, created in the 1860s, challenges us to consider the nature of servitude and the evolving relationship between man and dog. The image also highlights the satirical intent of the title, as it plays on the title of Darwin's seminal work, "On the Origin of Species." The use of a dog as the subject of evolution adds a humorous and relatable twist to the theory, while also emphasizing the idea that all living beings are connected through the process of evolution. This photograph, by CH Bennett, is a unique and intriguing piece of historical art that continues to captivate and provoke thought on the topics of evolution, servitude, and the bond between man and dog.
