EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a piece of history from the London Docks in the early 20th century. The image shows an entire warehouse floor devoted to ivory, with rows of elephant and other tusks laid out for import. Each tusk tells a story of its own, representing the majestic creatures that once roamed freely in the wild.
The sight of so much ivory gathered in one place is both awe-inspiring and troubling. It serves as a reminder of the impact humans have had on wildlife populations throughout history, particularly elephants who have been hunted for their valuable tusks.
The photograph was taken in November or December of 1902, during a time when ivory was highly sought after for various purposes such as decoration and craftsmanship. The intricate patterns and textures seen on these tusks are a testament to the skillful workmanship that went into transforming them into works of art.
As we look back on this snapshot from over a century ago, we are reminded of the importance of conservation efforts to protect endangered species like elephants from exploitation. Let us use this image as a catalyst for change, ensuring that future generations can continue to marvel at these magnificent creatures in their natural habitats.
