EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken in July 1923, we are transported back to the London Zoo where two majestic hippopotamuses named Bobbie and Joan are seen peacefully lying down in their enclosure. The image, captured by Frederick William Bond, showcases the beauty of these magnificent creatures as they rest side by side. The composition exudes a sense of tranquility and serenity, with Bobbie and Joan appearing completely at ease within their natural habitat. Their massive bodies create an impressive sight against the backdrop of their enclosure, highlighting the power and grace that lies within these gentle giants. As we gaze upon this snapshot from the past, we can't help but marvel at the intricate details captured by Bond's lens. Every wrinkle on their thick skin tells a story of resilience and survival in the wild. It is a testament to nature's ability to create such awe-inspiring creatures. This photograph serves as a reminder of our responsibility to protect and preserve wildlife for future generations. It invites us to appreciate not only the grandeur of animals like Bobbie and Joan but also their vulnerability in an ever-changing world. Through this timeless image, Bridgeman Images allows us to connect with nature's wonders while honoring its rich history.
