Animal Captivity Nineteen Tens Alfieri Europeana

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "At the Zoo Wapiti 13 January 1928" takes us back to a bygone era in the early 20th century. The monochrome image, captured by renowned photographer Alfieri, transports us to a time when animal captivity was still prevalent across Europe. The photograph showcases a majestic wapiti, also known as an elk or red deer, within the confines of its enclosure at the zoo. Despite being confined, there is an undeniable sense of grace and power emanating from this magnificent creature. Its antlers proudly displayed against the stark backdrop create a striking visual contrast. As we delve into this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of humanity's fascination with wildlife during that period. The nineteen tens marked a pivotal moment where zoos became increasingly popular as places for entertainment and education alike. Alfieri's skillful composition captures not only the physical beauty of this captive animal but also evokes emotions about our complex relationship with nature. This Europeana Photography gem allows us to reflect on how our understanding and treatment of animals have evolved over time. With every glance at this remarkable piece of history preserved through photography, we are transported back to that winter day in January 1928 when Alfieri immortalized this wapiti's existence within those zoo walls - forever reminding us of our responsibility towards all creatures who share our planet.
