EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, taken on the 18th of April in 1928 at a zoo in England, we are transported back in time to witness an extraordinary encounter between a majestic Indian lioness named Fay and a fur-coated visitor. The image showcases the beautiful landscape of the lion enclosure, with its sturdy cage serving as a backdrop for this intriguing moment. Fay, exuding grace and power, appears unbothered by the presence of the elegantly dressed visitor standing just outside her confines. Her attention is elsewhere as she gazes into the distance, seemingly disinterested in human fashion or clothing choices. This snapshot captures not only her regal demeanor but also hints at her wild nature that remains untamed despite being confined within these man-made boundaries. The contrast between the sleekness of Fay's fur coat and that of the visitor's outer layer adds depth to this composition. It serves as a reminder that while humans may attempt to emulate nature through their fashion choices, they can never truly replicate its innate beauty. This archival photograph offers us a glimpse into an era long gone by - an era where animal themes were celebrated and leisure activities included visits to zoos for entertainment and education alike. It sparks curiosity about our relationship with animals throughout history and invites contemplation on how we have evolved since then. London Express/Getty Images has masterfully captured this enchanting scene from nearly a century ago, allowing us to appreciate both the magnificence of wildlife and our own place within
