EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a group of majestic King penguins, believed to be taken around 1928. The creator of this remarkable image remains unknown, adding an air of mystery and intrigue to the scene. Standing tall at an impressive height of 70 to 100 cm (28 to 39 in), these flightless birds exude elegance and grace as they gather together on a rocky shoreline. Their distinctive coloration is beautifully captured in this monochrome photograph, allowing us to appreciate the subtle shades and patterns that adorn their sleek feathers. The image originates from "Die Welt in Bildern" (The World in Pictures), a cigarette card album produced by Georg A Jasmatzi in Dresden, Germany during the early twentieth century. These collectible cards were often cherished by enthusiasts who sought to complete their sets. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of the unique beauty found within nature's diverse creations. The King penguin's flippers are prominently displayed as they stand side by side, creating a sense of unity among these regal creatures. Although the commercial use or purpose behind this photo remains undisclosed, its historical significance cannot be denied. It serves as a testament to both the artistry of photography and our enduring fascination with wildlife throughout the ages.
