EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph captured by Reg Speller, we are transported back to the 1st of September in 1936 at Skegness. The image showcases an extraordinary sight that left holidaymakers astounded - a game of cricket played by three magnificent elephants from Three Powers. As the picture unfolds before our eyes, we witness these majestic creatures displaying their incredible talent for the sport with utmost professionalism. With their trunks elegantly poised and focused expressions on their faces, they seem to have mastered every aspect of the game. The juxtaposition between nature's gentle giants and the human-created world of sports equipment is truly remarkable. The elephants' immense strength is beautifully contrasted against the delicate cricket bat and ball held in their trunks. This photograph not only captures a unique moment but also serves as a testament to the wonders that can unfold when different worlds collide. It reminds us that beauty can be found in unexpected places, even amidst a seaside holiday destination like Skegness. Reg Speller's skillful composition further enhances this timeless image, emphasizing its historical significance while preserving its artistic integrity. As we gaze upon this print from Fine Art Storehouse, we are reminded of how art has the power to transport us through time and evoke emotions long after its creation.
