EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph captures a heartwarming moment at the sanatorium of the Peoples Dispensary for sick animals at St Swithins farm in Ilford. In this image, we see a horse undergoing a unique treatment known as Sunray therapy. The horse basks under artificial sunrays, soaking up the healing power of sunlight. The year is 1932, between the wars, when veterinary science was still evolving. At this time, pets and animals owned by impoverished individuals were fortunate enough to receive free medical treatment when they fell ill. This particular horse is one such lucky patient. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, it's hard not to be touched by the dedication shown towards animal welfare even during challenging times. The image serves as a reminder of how far we have come in caring for our furry friends. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of nostalgia to the scene while emphasizing the simplicity and purity of nature's healing properties. It also highlights the importance placed on capturing these moments through photography during that era. This print from TopFoto. co. uk invites us into a world where animals are given special attention and care despite financial constraints. It reminds us that humor can be found even in unexpected places like an animal receiving sunbathing treatment!
