EDITORS COMMENTS
This image dates back to the 1930s and features Koko, a charming Pekinese dog, playfully biting a postman's trouser leg. The silhouetted photograph showcases the distinctive features of both the breed and the man, with Koko's pointed muzzle and erect ears contrasting against the man's bobbed haircut and the folds of his trousers. The scene unfolds on a sidewalk, with children in the background, adding to the lively atmosphere of the scene. The illustrative quality of the photograph, reminiscent of the 1930s design aesthetic, imbues the image with a sense of nostalgia and charm. The postman, dressed in his uniform, appears amused as he attempts to keep his balance while Koko's small paws grip onto his leg. The crust of bread in the man's hand suggests that he may have been making a delivery, adding an element of everyday life to the image. Mrs. Mary, the photographer, skillfully captured this moment of playful interaction between man and dog, highlighting the bond between them. The Pekinese breed, known for its loyal and affectionate nature, is on full display as Koko eagerly engages with the postman. This photograph is a delightful glimpse into the past, offering a charming and timeless portrayal of a beloved pet and the human connection with animals.
