EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Arthur Sidey, we are transported back to the winter of 1970. Two majestic vultures perch on a branch, their expressions mirroring the sentiments of many during the gloomy British weather. Fed up and far from home, these birds become symbols of melancholy as they express their discontent with their surroundings. On the left stands a Northern Sociable Vulture, its feathers ruffled and eyes seemingly filled with sorrow. Its partner on the right is a Griffon Vulture, equally despondent in appearance. Together, they form an unlikely couple united by shared emotions of sadness and longing. The image captures not only the physical presence of these magnificent creatures but also their emotional state. The photographer's skillful composition allows us to connect with these birds on a deeper level, reminding us that even animals can experience feelings akin to human depression. As we gaze upon this poignant scene frozen in time, it serves as a reminder that nature too can feel disheartened by its circumstances. It prompts reflection on our own relationship with our environment and how it impacts our well-being. Arthur Sidey's photograph offers us a glimpse into both the beauty and vulnerability found within nature itself – an enduring testament to his artistic vision capturing moments that transcend time.
