Step right into a traveling menagerie of the 1800s! This wonderful antique print, titled “A Menagerie,” is after the original painting by noted German artist Paul Friedrich Meyerheim (1842–1915) and was published by Gebbie & Co. The incredibly detailed scene captures the spectacle of a traveling animal show—a performer dramatically handling a large snake while families gather around, with a camel, pelican, exotic birds and animals peering from their cages. Meyerheim was celebrated for his animal and menagerie scenes, and this composition dates back to the 1860s. Beautiful old-world storytelling with something new to discover every time you look at it. The paper retains its wide original margins with age-related toning, foxing and edge wear as shown—wonderful authentic character for a European-inspired gallery wall or collected antique art display 17” by 11”
