EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming photograph captured by Alisdair Macdonald, we are transported back to the festive season of 1975 in London's Trafalgar Square. Standing proudly at the base of Nelson's Column, one of the four majestic Lion statues has received an unusual Christmas gift - a large bowl filled with bones. The anonymous admirer must have had a playful sense of humor, as they bestowed this quirky present upon the regal creature. As the morning light illuminates the scene, a young girl and her father pause to admire both the magnificent lion and his unexpected feast. Their expressions reflect a mix of curiosity and amusement at this delightful spectacle. Perhaps they too appreciate the whimsical nature of this gesture during such a joyous time of year. This snapshot from decades past serves as a reminder that even in bustling city squares, moments of lightheartedness can be found amidst grandeur and tradition. It captures not only an act of seasonal generosity but also showcases how art can become intertwined with everyday life. Alisdair Macdonald's photograph encapsulates both history and merriment, inviting us to imagine what stories lie behind each detail within its frame. It is truly an enchanting glimpse into Christmas cheer in 1970s London – where lions receive presents fit for kings!
