EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black and white landscape print, captured by the talented photographer Fred Morley, we are transported back in time to witness a truly remarkable encounter at the Tower of London Embankment. The date is 15th March 1938, and what unfolds before our eyes is a clash of two iconic symbols: the indomitable bulldog spirit and an ancient Chinese cannon shaped like a dog. Standing proudly amidst the European architecture, this old artillery piece takes on an unexpected form - that of man's best friend. Its intricate details reveal years of craftsmanship, while its weathered exterior tells tales of battles long fought. Yet it pales in comparison to the sheer determination emanating from its living counterpart. A fearless bulldog stands defiantly beside the cannon-dog, embodying strength and loyalty with every muscle tensed. This unlikely pairing creates a visual paradox that leaves us pondering about history's curious intersections. As we gaze upon this extraordinary photograph, we cannot help but marvel at how art has preserved this fleeting moment for generations to come. Through Morley's lens, we are reminded that even inanimate objects can possess character when placed within their historical context. This stunning print serves as a testament to both human ingenuity and our deep connection with animals throughout time. It invites us to reflect on how these creatures have not only been companions but also sources of inspiration for mankind's greatest achievements.
