EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "At the Zoo Coypu rats 13 January 1928" takes us back to a bygone era in the early twentieth century. The image, captured by renowned photographer Alfieri, transports us to a moment frozen in time at an undisclosed zoo in Europe. In this monochrome masterpiece, we are introduced to a pair of Coypu rats held captive within their enclosure. These fascinating creatures, native to South America but often found in European zoos during that period, captivate our attention with their unique appearance and playful demeanor. The photograph's composition is strikingly beautiful; it showcases the intricate details of these rodents' fur as they curiously explore their surroundings. Their expressive eyes seem to convey both curiosity and resignation towards their captivity. Alfieri's expert use of light and shadow adds depth and dimensionality to the image. The contrast between the dark background and the Coypu rats' lighter tones creates a visually stunning effect that draws viewers into this intimate moment shared between man-made confinement and untamed nature. As we gaze upon this remarkable snapshot from nearly a century ago, we can't help but ponder on humanity's relationship with animals throughout history. This thought-provoking photograph serves as a reminder of our responsibility towards preserving wildlife while also appreciating the beauty that exists even within captivity.
