EDITORS COMMENTS
A Rare Sight: The Pet Gazelle of Captain Denham, 1846 This photograph, sourced from Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back in time to an era when the exotic and the unusual held the power to enchant and intrigue. The image depicts a pet gazelle, a creature brought from the African continent to England aboard the Avon steamship, under the care of its owner, Captain Denham. The gazelle, a graceful and elegant antelope native to Africa, was a popular yet sufficiently unusual pet during the mid-19th century. The Ilustrated London News (ILN), a prominent British weekly newspaper, even took notice of this remarkable animal, mentioning it in one of its issues in 1846. Captain Denham, a man of adventure and exploration, had likely acquired the gazelle during one of his voyages to Africa. The animal's presence on the Avon, a testament to the global connections and trade networks of the time, was a source of great fascination for the passengers and crew. The gazelle, with its slender legs, elegant neck, and distinctive markings, stands proudly in the photograph, its eyes filled with curiosity and intelligence. The image offers a rare glimpse into the past, a time when the world seemed smaller, and the exotic was just a ship's voyage away. This photograph is not only a beautiful reminder of the historical significance of the pet gazelle but also a testament to the enduring allure of the natural world and the human desire to bring a piece of it into our homes and lives.
