EDITORS COMMENTS
Roque the Tiger, a majestic creature from Spain, arrives in the UK on his journey to freedom at the Born Free Sanctuary in Headcorn Kent. This powerful image captures Roque's arrival at an airport, where he is seen being transported on a cargo lift. The photograph, taken by Andy Stenning in December 1998, serves as a poignant reminder of the plight faced by animals held captive. In this striking print, Roque's caged presence evokes both sadness and hope. His piercing eyes reflect years of confinement and captivity but also carry a glimmer of anticipation for the new life that awaits him. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the importance of sanctuaries like Born Free that provide refuge for animals who have suffered under human exploitation. The photo encapsulates not only Roque's individual story but also represents countless other wild creatures trapped within cages worldwide. It serves as a call to action against animal cruelty and prompts us to question our role in their suffering. Memory Lane Prints brings forth this historical moment with utmost respect for these magnificent beings. Through this snapshot frozen in time, we are compelled to advocate for change and strive towards creating a world where all animals can roam freely.
