How Do You Do?
EDITORS COMMENTS
: A Frog's Surprising Encounter with a Colorful Bird, 1932 In this charming and whimsical photograph, a frog extends a curious greeting to a rather startled colorful small bird perched on the branch of a fuchsia bush. The frog, with a quizzical expression on its face, seems to be asking the bird, "How do you do?" as if engaging in a polite conversation. The bird, taken aback by the unexpected encounter, appears to be in a state of alarm or shock, with its beak slightly agape and feathers ruffled. This delightful scene, captured in 1932 by renowned photographer von Maydell, offers a glimpse into the natural world's unexpected moments. The vibrant colors of the fuchsia bush and the bird's plumage contrast beautifully with the green tones of the frog and the surrounding foliage. The photograph, taken in the 1930s, is a testament to the beauty and intrigue of the natural world and the unexpected encounters that can occur within it. The photograph, titled "How Do You Do?" is a reminder of the simple joys of observing nature and the unexpected connections that can be made between even the most unlikely of creatures. The frog's friendly demeanor and the bird's startled reaction create a sense of surprise and wonder, inviting us to pause and appreciate the beauty and complexity of the natural world around us. This photograph is a treasure from the Mary Evans Picture Library, a collection of historical and contemporary images that offer insights into various aspects of culture, history, and the natural world. It is a reminder of the power of a single image to transport us to another time and place and to inspire wonder and curiosity.
