EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting moment of twin sisters, Jennifer and Christine Wells, during their visit to London Zoo on the 10th of December 1956. The English photographer beautifully portrays the joyous scene as the two girls stand in front of Rusty the elephant, radiating happiness and excitement. Dressed in their cozy coats, these school-aged children exude a sense of innocence and wonderment that is characteristic of childhood. Their beaming smiles reflect pure delight as they interact with one of nature's majestic creatures. The image evokes a feeling of nostalgia for simpler times when outings to zoos were treasured adventures. The photograph not only showcases the bond between siblings but also highlights the timeless fascination humans have with animals. It serves as an educational reminder that zoos play an important role in connecting people with wildlife, fostering a love for nature from an early age. Set against the backdrop of London, England in the mid-20th century, this image encapsulates a bygone era filled with gaiety and cheerfulness. It transports us back to a time when life was less complicated and moments like these were cherished treasures. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece capturing British culture at its finest – celebrating family ties, childhood innocence, and our enduring connection to animals.
