EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "M. Pernelet and his Pets, 1902" takes us back to a bygone era of eccentric entertainment. The image showcases an unusual scene featuring a German animal trainer named M. Pernelet surrounded by his remarkable group of pets. Seated on a wooden chair in the countryside, Mr. Pernelet exudes confidence as he commands obedience from his diverse collection of animals. His commanding presence is juxtaposed with the serene setting, creating an intriguing contrast. Intriguingly, the photograph captures Mr. Pernelet feeding a crocodile from a tank filled with water nearby. This daring act adds an element of danger to the already mesmerizing spectacle. The monochrome composition enhances the timeless quality of this snapshot from history, transporting viewers to early 20th-century Germany where circus acts like these were highly popular forms of entertainment. Although little is known about the creator or origin of this particular print, its inclusion in "The Windsor Magazine Vol. XVI - June to November 1902" speaks volumes about its significance during that time period. This extraordinary image serves as a testament to human-animal relationships and our enduring fascination with taming wild creatures for amusement purposes—an art form that continues to captivate audiences today.
