I m Clarissa. You might think me as cold as a fish, but I m not carping
I m Clarissa. You might think me as cold as a fish, but I m not carping. Why should I when someone as pretty as Janet Bromley comes to see me every day? Here she comes again I just love her to tickle me under the chin. It makes me feel as if I m swimming on air. But thats not all. She never forgets to bring me a tit bit. Mirror cameraman George Greenwell, takes a look at the famous 44lb carp at the London Zoo, aquarium. 25th August 1963

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by George Greenwell in 1963, we are introduced to the enchanting Clarissa, a famous 44lb carp residing at the London Zoo aquarium. Despite her cold and stoic appearance, Clarissa proves that looks can be deceiving. She is far from being as cold as a fish and has found solace in the presence of one woman - Janet Bromley. Janet's daily visits bring warmth and joy to Clarissa's underwater world. As she approaches once again, Clarissa eagerly anticipates the tickles under her chin that make her feel like she's swimming on air. But it doesn't end there; Janet never forgets to bring a delightful treat for her beloved aquatic friend. This photograph captures not only the beauty of their unique bond but also highlights the contrast between inner boroughs and inner London life. It reminds us of the wonders that can be found within our city zoos, where extraordinary creatures like Clarissa reside. George Greenwell skillfully immortalizes this moment with his camera lens, showcasing both the delicate details of Clarissa's fins and capturing Janet's genuine affection for this magnificent creature. As we gaze upon this image from Memory Lane Prints, let us appreciate how love knows no boundaries or species limitations. It serves as a reminder that even in unexpected places like an aquarium at London Zoo, connections can form between humans and animals that transcend all expectations.
