EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Pickles the Syrian bear sitting in his cage at London Zoo" we are transported back to the 1950s, a time when animals were still displayed for public amusement. The image captures an unusual and humorous moment as Pickles, a majestic Syrian bear, finds himself deep in meditation while seated inside his enclosure. Despite being confined within the boundaries of London Zoo, Pickles exudes an air of tranquility that is both unexpected and endearing. His large paws rest gently on the ground, showcasing his immense strength yet contrasting with his serene expression. It's as if he has found solace amidst the concrete walls that surround him. The photograph invites us to ponder upon the complex emotions experienced by these incredible creatures held captive for our entertainment. While it may be amusing to witness such a sight - a bear seemingly lost in thought - it also serves as a reminder of their innate wildness and need for freedom. Taken by an unknown photographer, this snapshot from Memory Lane Prints transports us back to a time when zoos were seen purely as sources of amusement rather than institutions dedicated to conservation and education. It sparks curiosity about how our perception towards animal welfare has evolved over time. This print not only tickles our funny bone but also encourages contemplation about humanity's relationship with nature and its responsibility towards protecting these magnificent beings who share our planet.
