EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Elephant House a98_06396" by Eric de Mare, offers a glimpse into the bustling Elephant and Rhino Pavilion at London Zoo in Regent's Park, Greater London. The image, taken shortly after the pavilion's opening in 1965, showcases the architectural brilliance of Sir Hugh Casson, Neville Condor and Partners. The design seamlessly blends modernist aesthetics with the natural world, creating a harmonious environment for the zoo's most iconic residents. At the heart of the frame, an elephant can be seen, its massive form dwarfing the crowd of onlookers gathered around its enclosure. The elephant's wrinkled skin and powerful demeanor exude a sense of majesty and wonder, drawing visitors closer to appreciate the magnificent creature up close. The people in the photograph mirror the excitement and awe felt by generations of zoo-goers, their faces pressed against the railings, cameras in hand, eager to capture a memory of their encounter with this gentle giant. The Elephant and Rhino Pavilion, with its distinctive curved roof and open-air design, is a testament to the architects' vision of creating a space where visitors could connect with the natural world while respecting the animals' habitats. The photograph not only captures the essence of this architectural marvel but also the joy and curiosity that the London Zoo continues to inspire in its visitors.
