The Attempted Removal of Jumbo from the Zoological Gardens - A Captivating Journey
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This intriguing print captures the dramatic attempt to remove the beloved elephant, Jumbo, from his home in the Zoological Gardens. The image unfolds with a series of snapshots that depict various stages of this monumental task. In the first frame, we witness Jumbo en route from his house to his box, guided by Scott and other caretakers. The second snapshot showcases a younger version of Jumbo, reminding us of his growth and significance throughout the years. As we move forward, we catch a glimpse of "The Box" symbolizing both confinement and protection for this majestic creature. However, it becomes evident that Jumbo is not willing to leave without resistance. In an unexpected turn of events captured in frame five, he appears oblivious to Scott's call to come over. Despite initial progress shown in frame six with an appeal made by caretakers, it seems that convincing him will be no easy feat. Outside the gardens in frame nine lies a scene filled with anticipation as onlookers await Jumbo's departure. Yet against all odds, our resilient protagonist triumphs in frame ten as he returns to his cherished quarters - a testament to his indomitable spirit. This 1882 engraving not only offers historical insight into animal captivity but also showcases illustrative techniques prevalent during Victorian times. Its vintage charm evokes nostalgia while shedding light on society's evolving relationship with zoology and wildlife conservation.
