EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1946, we are transported back in time to the North Miami Zoo, where a young girl finds solace leaning against a massive tortoise. With a smile on her face and an adorable pose, she exudes innocence and curiosity. The vintage aesthetic adds to the charm of this historical moment frozen in time. The image showcases the world's largest tortoise colony, highlighting the incredible size and weight of these majestic creatures. Captured within their shells is centuries of wisdom and resilience. The contrast between the small child and the colossal tortoise emphasizes both vulnerability and strength. This photograph serves as a reminder of our fascination with animals throughout history. It takes us back to an era when zoos were places of wonderment for people from all walks of life. In this particular frame, we witness how even at such a tender age, children were captivated by nature's wonders. The monochromatic composition further enhances its timeless appeal while emphasizing the bond between humans and animals that transcends generations. This single person portrait depicts a caucasian toddler exploring her surroundings with awe-inspiring reptiles as companions. Underwood Archives has expertly captured not only an enchanting moment but also an important piece of American history through their lens. This print invites us to reflect on our relationship with wildlife while cherishing memories from days gone by.
