EDITORS COMMENTS
"Step back in time with this enchanting photograph from the Jardin d'Acclimatation in Paris, France, circa 1882. The Jardin d'Acclimatation, or Garden of Acclimatization, was established in 1854 with the aim of introducing exotic animals to Europeans and acclimatizing them to the local climate. In this image, children are seen enjoying a day out at the zoo, each choosing a unique mode of transportation to explore the grounds. Some opt for the grandeur of the elephant ride, others for the quirky ostrich cart, and still others for the gentle ride on the camel's back. The historical significance of this photograph lies in its portrayal of a time when visiting the zoo was an exciting adventure, a chance to witness the wonders of the natural world up close. The elegantly dressed children, their rosy cheeks flushed with excitement, add to the charm of this nostalgic scene. This photograph is a testament to the enduring allure of the zoo experience and the joy it brings to generations of visitors." Mary Evans Picture Library's collection offers a wealth of historical images, each with a story to tell. This photograph of children riding various animals at the Jardin d'Acclimatation in Paris, taken in 1882, is a delightful snapshot of a bygone era. The children's joyous expressions and the variety of animals they ride on add to the enchantment of this scene. The Jardin d'Acclimatation, established in 1854, was a pioneering institution that aimed to introduce exotic animals to Europeans and acclimatize them to the local climate. This photograph is a reminder of the enduring allure of the zoo experience and the joy it brings to generations of visitors.
