EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken by Frederick William Bond in 1928, we are transported back in time to the London Zoo. The image showcases a male Yak lying peacefully within its enclosure, exuding an air of tranquility and vulnerability. The majestic creature is captured in full length, allowing us to appreciate its impressive size and stature. Its magnificent horns gracefully curve upwards, adding to the overall grandeur of the scene. With a side view perspective, we can observe every detail of its strong physique and distinctive features. Resting comfortably on the ground, the Yak appears at ease within its surroundings. Its calm demeanor invites us to reflect upon nature's beauty and serenity. Despite being confined within the walls of the zoo, there is still a sense of wildness emanating from this bovine mammal. This historical photograph not only serves as a visual delight but also offers insight into our relationship with animals throughout history. It reminds us of our responsibility towards these creatures who share our planet. Through Bond's lens, we are reminded that even mighty beings like yaks can be vulnerable when removed from their natural habitat. As we gaze upon this stunning monochrome print, it transports us back to an era long gone while simultaneously urging us to protect and cherish all living beings that inhabit our world today.
