EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "A Tall Order" we are transported back to the 1950s at Bristol Zoo, where Gerd Zellmer, the dedicated giraffe keeper, is captured in a heartwarming moment. The image showcases Gerd tenderly feeding Peter, a young giraffe calf who has sadly been abandoned by his mother. As we gaze upon this extraordinary scene, it becomes evident that Peter's survival depends on Gerd's unwavering care and dedication. With an astonishing appetite for growth, Peter consumes an astounding ten pints of milk each day! This amusing fact adds a touch of humor to the photograph while highlighting the remarkable nature of these majestic creatures. Maurice Tibbles skillfully captures not only the unique bond between Gerd and Peter but also invites us into their world filled with love and compassion. The composition exudes warmth as sunlight filters through lush foliage in the background, creating a serene atmosphere within which this touching interaction takes place. This print from Memory Lane Prints transports us to a time when zoos played an essential role in educating and conserving endangered species. It serves as both a reminder of our responsibility towards wildlife preservation and an ode to those unsung heroes like Gerd Zellmer who dedicate their lives to nurturing animals in need.
