Symmetrical Slumber - A Captivating Snapshot of Basel Zoo's Aardvarks
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This mesmerizing print captures a serene moment at Basel zoo in Switzerland on the 29th of July, 1967. The image showcases a pair of aardvarks peacefully asleep, their ebony bodies blending seamlessly with the monochromatic landscape. Keystone/Getty Images masterfully captured this scene, highlighting the beauty and symmetry found in nature. The composition is strikingly horizontal, emphasizing the tranquil atmosphere surrounding these enigmatic creatures. With no human presence to distract from their slumber, our attention is solely focused on these remarkable animals. The absence of color further enhances the timeless quality of this photograph. The sleepy duo exudes an air of tranquility as they rest side by side. Their distinctive features are accentuated against their dark coats - long snouts perfectly adapted for digging into termite mounds and large ears that remain ever alert even in sleep. This artwork transports us back to a time when animal themes were celebrated through photography. It invites viewers to appreciate the wonders of wildlife while showcasing Keystone's talent for capturing intimate moments within natural settings. Whether displayed individually or as part of a collection celebrating vintage animal photography, this Fine Art Storehouse print serves as a testament to both artistic skill and appreciation for Earth's diverse inhabitants.
