EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the playful moments of Kima and Bibi, the mascot monkeys of the Court Treatt Cape to Cairo Motor Expedition, at Victoria Falls in South Africa during the 1920s. The Court Treatt Motor Expedition was a daring journey that spanned over 10,000 miles from Cape Town, South Africa to Cairo, Egypt, undertaken by a team of intrepid explorers in 1925. Kima and Bibi, two vervet monkeys, were adopted by the team as mascots and became beloved companions throughout the expedition. In this image, Kima and Bibi are shown playfully interacting near the majestic Victoria Falls, their curiosity piqued by the surrounding beauty and excitement. The falls, one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World, are a breathtaking backdrop to their antics, with the mist rising in the air and the lush greenery of the surrounding rainforest creating a picturesque scene. The 1920s, also known as the Roaring Twenties, was a time of adventure and exploration, and the Court Treatt Motor Expedition embodied the spirit of this era. Kima and Bibi, with their mischievous grins and lively energy, add a touch of whimsy and fun to this historic moment in time. This photograph is a testament to the enduring bond between humans and animals and the sense of wonder and discovery that comes with exploring new places and experiences.
