EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled ""Mary" the elephant aged 25 from Burma and "Kieri" aged 35 from Ceylon helping to clear up bombed sites in blitzed Hamburg, Germany" we are transported back to November 1945. The aftermath of World War Two left devastating damage across cities, and amidst the rubble, two remarkable creatures emerge as symbols of hope and resilience. Meet "Mary" and "Kieri" two majestic elephants who have been enlisted for a unique mission - clearing up bomb-damaged sites. With their immense strength, these gentle giants effortlessly lift weights of up to 3000 lbs, making them indispensable assets in the post-war reconstruction efforts. As they navigate through the debris-strewn streets of Hamburg, their presence brings solace to war-weary souls. Their unwavering determination mirrors that of the resilient human spirit striving for normalcy after years of destruction. This photograph encapsulates not only the incredible bond between humans and animals but also serves as a testament to our collective ability to rebuild even in times of adversity. It reminds us that unity knows no boundaries or species limitations when it comes to restoring what has been lost. Let this image serve as a reminder that amidst chaos and devastation, there is always room for compassion and cooperation. Mary and Kieri stand tall as ambassadors of strength, reminding us all that together we can overcome any obstacle on our path towards healing.
