EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, taken on the 28th of February 1953, we are transported back in time to the Natural History Museum in London. A little boy stands in awe before a display of stuffed giraffes, his eyes wide with fascination. The image captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing the wonder and curiosity that children possess. The composition is beautifully framed from a back view perspective, allowing us to see not only the child's reaction but also two men standing nearby. The square format adds a timeless quality to the photograph, emphasizing its archival nature. The contrast between light and shadow creates an atmospheric ambiance within the museum walls. We can almost feel ourselves walking through those hallowed halls filled with exhibitions and displays. This print transports us to a bygone era when museums were places of discovery and learning for both young and old alike. It reminds us of our innate connection to animals and nature as we observe this small boy captivated by these majestic creatures. With its rich historical context and artistic appeal, this image from Picture Post serves as a testament to the enduring allure of museums as cultural institutions that inspire generations across time.
