EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by George Marks, we are presented with a humorous yet thought-provoking scene. An overweight Orangutan (Pongo pygmaeus) is seen sitting on concrete steps in a zoo, showcasing its full length and unique characteristics. With arms raised and legs apart, the orangutan appears to be lazily enjoying its time in captivity. The image evokes mixed emotions as we witness the animal's undeniable charm while also contemplating the effects of captivity on these magnificent creatures. The fur of the orangutan is beautifully captured, highlighting its mammalian features and adding depth to the composition. Marks' easy retouching technique enhances the visual appeal of this photograph, emphasizing both the subject's humor and vulnerability. By presenting this image in black and white, he adds a timeless quality that draws us into a moment frozen in time. As we observe this playful display of animal themes within an artificial environment, it serves as a reminder of our responsibility towards wildlife conservation. This photograph invites us to reflect upon our relationship with animals held captive for human entertainment. With no people present in the frame, we are left alone with our thoughts about how these majestic creatures deserve freedom beyond concrete walls. Through his skillful photography, George Marks prompts us to reconsider our attitudes towards animals in captivity while appreciating their beauty from behind his lens.
