EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to a pivotal moment in London Zoo's history, specifically March 1992. Meet Jake the Lion, the charismatic feline who became an emblem of hope during a time when this iconic institution faced the imminent threat of closure. Sponsored by none other than the Daily Mirror, one of Britain's most renowned newspapers, Jake symbolized resilience and unity in the face of adversity. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness nature at its finest as Jake stretches his mighty jaws wide open in a magnificent yawn. His untamed mane frames his regal face while his piercing eyes exude both strength and vulnerability. The image perfectly captures the essence of wildlife in all its raw beauty. Photographer Arnold Slater masterfully immortalizes this extraordinary creature against a backdrop that hints at an era long gone—the vibrant hues and nostalgic aura transport us straight into the heart of the 1990s. With every glance at this print, memories flood back from those who remember London Zoo's uncertain fate and how it was ultimately saved thanks to public support. Beyond being just another photograph on display, this image serves as a reminder that sometimes even seemingly insurmountable challenges can be overcome through collective determination and unwavering dedication. It is a testament to our shared responsibility to protect and preserve our precious natural world for future generations—a duty embodied by Jake himself.
