EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the Liszt Collection, we are transported back to 1936 Sudan, specifically Khartoum Zoo. The image captures a remarkable moment between a majestic giraffe and Major Barker. As if sharing an intimate connection, the giraffe can be seen gently nosing at Major Barker's pocket. The composition of the photograph is strikingly beautiful, with the towering giraffe gracefully bending its long neck towards the curious major. The contrast between their sizes creates a sense of awe and wonderment. It is as though time stands still in this snapshot, allowing us to witness an extraordinary encounter between man and nature. The historical significance of this image cannot be overlooked either. It offers us a glimpse into life during colonial times when exotic animals were brought from far-flung corners of the world for public display in zoos. Khartoum Zoo served as both an educational institution and a source of entertainment for locals and visitors alike. As we admire this rare piece from Sudan's past, it reminds us of our shared responsibility to protect wildlife habitats today. This print serves as a poignant reminder that every living creature deserves respect and preservation in our rapidly changing world.
