EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph from March 1925 takes us back in time to the London Zoo, where two starfish are showcased on the aquarium glass. The image, captured by Frederick William Bond, offers a unique perspective as it focuses on the undersides of these mesmerizing creatures. The starfish, belonging to the Asteriidae family, reveal their intricate details against the backdrop of the transparent glass. Their full-length bodies are beautifully displayed, showcasing their delicate arms and textured skin. One can almost feel their presence through this stunning visual representation. As we delve into this historical piece, we are reminded of the wonders that lie beneath our oceans' surfaces. These invertebrates have long fascinated scientists and nature enthusiasts alike with their ability to regenerate limbs and adapt to various environments. In this particular photograph, we witness a pair of common starfish (Asterias rubens) displaying their ventral view. The marine world comes alive within this snapshot as if inviting us to explore its mysteries further. Bond's skillful photography transports us back in time while simultaneously reminding us of the timeless beauty found within nature's creations. This print serves as a reminder that even in captivity at an aquarium exhibit, these magnificent beings continue to captivate our hearts and minds with their ethereal grace.
