EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Not an everyday sight" captured by Chris Grieve in Hyde Park on the 17th of March, 1987, we witness a truly unique scene. A man confidently strolls through the park with his unusual pet - a pig! As if that weren't enough to catch our attention, a majestic horse-drawn carriage gracefully passes by in the background. This snapshot from the 1980s transports us back to an era when eccentricity and individuality were celebrated. The city of Westminster provides a stunning backdrop for this extraordinary encounter between man and beast. Dressed impeccably in a suit, the man exudes confidence as he leads his unconventional companion on their leisurely walk. The juxtaposition of traditional transport represented by the elegant horse-drawn carriage and the unexpected presence of a pig adds an element of humor to this already quirky scene. It is not every day that one witnesses such an amusing spectacle! Chris Grieve's photograph perfectly captures this momentary intersection between two worlds – one rooted in tradition and formality, symbolized by the carriage; while another embraces spontaneity and unconventionality embodied by both man and pig. This intriguing image serves as a reminder that life is full of surprises, even amidst familiar surroundings like London's Hyde Park.
