EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intimate moment between an adult female Indian Elephant named Assam Lukhi and her devoted keeper, Charles Eyles. Taken at London Zoo in September 1923, the image showcases a unique bond between man and majestic beast. As Lukhi patiently stands on a footstool, Charles carefully trims her feet with utmost care. The historical significance of this scene is evident as it portrays the dedication and responsibility of zookeepers during that era. The photograph also offers a glimpse into the life of Lukhi, who was presented to London Zoo by H. H. The Maharajah of Benares in 1903. Intriguingly, behind Lukhi can be seen a baby elephant, adding an element of tenderness to this already heartwarming image. This snapshot not only highlights the beauty and strength of these incredible creatures but also serves as a reminder of their vulnerability when placed under human care. The composition provides a side view perspective that allows us to appreciate both Lukhi's impressive size and Charles' unwavering commitment to her well-being. It is evident that this pedicure session was more than just routine maintenance; it symbolizes trust, respect, and mutual understanding between two beings from different worlds. Frederick William Bond skillfully captured this moment in time for posterity's sake - an enduring testament to the tireless efforts made by dedicated individuals like Charles Eyles in preserving our planet's diverse wildlife heritage.
