EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming and humorous photograph, taken in the early 20th century, we see an unexpected display of unselfishness and kindness on the heathlands of England. The image, titled "Unselfishness" and featuring the renowned English photographer W.H. Robinson, captures a moment of warmth and compassion between a man and a tortoise during a rainy day. The scene unfolds as a well-dressed gentleman, with an umbrella shielding him from the rain, stops to offer shelter to a small tortoise making its way across the damp and muddy terrain. The tortoise, seemingly unperturbed by the inclement weather, appears to look up at its benefactor with a sense of gratitude and trust. This image, a testament to the enduring spirit of kindness and compassion, offers a delightful contrast to the formalities and social hierarchies of the time. In the new world, even a humble tortoise could count on the kind of courtesy that was once reserved for the wealthy and well-connected. The photograph, taken by W.H. Robinson, is a reminder of the simple pleasures and joys of life, as well as the importance of extending kindness and compassion to all creatures, no matter how small or seemingly insignificant. This historical image, with its timeless message of unselfishness and kindness, is a treasure trove of humour and warmth. It invites us to reflect on the power of small acts of kindness and the profound impact they can have on the lives of others.
