EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Daniel Farson on 28th February 1953, we see a young boy engrossed in examining an exhibit in a glass cage within the elephant room at the Natural History Museum in London. The image exudes a sense of curiosity and wonder as the child gazes intently at the animal model on display.
The composition of the photograph is striking, with the square format emphasizing the boy's solitary figure against the backdrop of museum exhibits. His glasses add a touch of innocence to his appearance, highlighting his youthful fascination with the world around him.
As we peer into this snapshot from over half a century ago, we are transported back to a time when museums served as gateways to knowledge and discovery. The archival quality of this image preserves not only a moment frozen in time but also captures the essence of human curiosity and exploration.
This print titled "They're More My Size" invites us to reflect on our own encounters with museums and exhibitions, reminding us of the endless possibilities for learning and growth that these institutions offer. It serves as a timeless reminder that no matter our age or background, there is always something new waiting to be discovered just beyond those glass walls.
