EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "It's Sacred" we are transported back to the enchanting world of Chessington Zoo in August 1953. The image showcases a truly rare and precious sight - the first pictures ever taken of a baby sacred baboon, just two days old. As our eyes wander over the delicate features of this tiny primate, it becomes evident that there is something inherently sacred about its existence. Its innocent gaze seems to hold ancient wisdom beyond its years, reminding us of the interconnectedness between humans and animals. Captured within the confines of captivity, this photograph invites contemplation on our role as stewards of these magnificent creatures. It serves as a poignant reminder that while zoos may provide protection for endangered species like these monkeys, they also raise questions about their natural habitat and freedom. The year 1953 adds another layer to this visual narrative; it was an era marked by post-war recovery and burgeoning scientific discoveries. This image captures both curiosity and wonderment towards nature's creations during a time when such glimpses into exotic wildlife were still considered extraordinary. "It's Sacred" not only immortalizes an adorable newborn baboon but also encapsulates a moment frozen in time - one that sparks reflection on humanity's relationship with animals, conservation efforts, and our responsibility to preserve Earth's diverse ecosystems for generations to come.
