EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, taken in India in 1922, a blind monkey trainer proudly displays his small, dressed monkey, who rides gracefully atop a white dog. The trainer, with his eyes covered by a cloth, expertly guides the animals with the help of a chain attached to the monkey's collar. The monkey, seemingly unphased by the situation, holds a small drum in one hand and a basket in the other, adding to the enthralling performance. The scene transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the rich history of animal training in India. The use of animals in entertainment is a tradition that dates back centuries, with blind trainers often relying on their heightened senses and deep connection with their animals to deliver captivating shows. Despite the challenging circumstances, the trainer's unwavering bond with his animals shines through in this image. The white dog, with its regal demeanor, appears to willingly carry its monkey passenger, while the monkey, with its alert and focused expression, skillfully plays its drum. The photograph also raises questions about the role of animals in entertainment and the lives of those who rely on them for livelihood. The trainer, a blind beggar, likely relied on the proceeds from his performances to survive. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the deep connection between humans and animals, and the resilience and adaptability of those who face adversity. This photograph is a testament to the history and culture of animal training in India, and a beautiful depiction of the unique bond between a blind trainer and his animals. The image is a must-have for anyone with an interest in animal behavior, history, or the human-animal relationship.
