EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a serene moment in the Kandy area of Sri Lanka, where two men are seen tenderly washing an elephant in the river after a long day of work. The image showcases the deep bond between humans and animals as these individuals, known as mahouts, engage in this traditional bathing ritual. The vibrant colors of nature surround them, creating a picturesque scene that highlights the beauty of outdoor life. The rich hues reflect off the water's surface as it cascades around the majestic creature being scrubbed with care and affection. As one animal stands alone amidst this tranquil setting, it symbolizes both its strength and vulnerability within our natural world. This photograph offers us a glimpse into the harmonious coexistence between man and beast that is deeply rooted in Asian culture. Yadid Levy/Robert Harding's contemporary photography skillfully captures this authentic moment, transporting viewers to South Asia through his lens. It serves as a reminder of how travel can open our eyes to different cultures and traditions while showcasing breathtaking landscapes along the way. Whether you're drawn by wanderlust or simply appreciate stunning imagery, this print invites you to immerse yourself in Sri Lankan charm and witness firsthand the profound connection shared between these two men and their gentle giant companion.
