This print captures a remarkable moment in history - elephant training in Maidstone, Kent on 31 March 1938. In this extraordinary image by John Topham, we witness a trainer fearlessly positioned underneath the massive creature, showcasing the incredible bond between man and animal. The photograph transports us back to the interwar period of the twentieth century, where danger lurked around every corner. The crowd that gathers around is filled with men, women, and children who are both fascinated and awestruck by this daring spectacle. Their expressions reveal a mix of curiosity and trepidation as they watch this mesmerizing display unfold before their eyes. Topham's monochrome composition adds an air of timelessness to the scene, emphasizing the raw power emanating from both human and beast. It serves as a poignant reminder of an era when such acts were not only accepted but also celebrated for their audacity.
