Mum looks calm and tries to doze. But ask any Mum how can you doze when you have two bright-eyed young things chattering, digging you in the ribs and wanting you to play? The animals are baboons and they live at London Zoo. 26th March 1954

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Bela Zola, we witness a serene yet tired mother trying to find solace amidst the chaos. The image transports us back to the 1950s at London Zoo, where two mischievous baboons have become her lively companions. As Mum attempts to doze off, she finds herself unable to escape the constant chatter and playful jabs from her bright-eyed young ones. The scene is filled with both tenderness and exhaustion as Motherhood takes center stage. It reminds us of the universal challenges faced by mothers throughout time - their unwavering love for their children juxtaposed with an overwhelming desire for rest. Despite her fatigue, Mum's calm demeanor shines through, showcasing her resilience in the face of these energetic creatures. London Zoo provides a fitting backdrop for this snapshot of nature's beauty intertwined with human emotion. The cage surrounding them serves as a metaphorical barrier between wild animals and weary motherhood – two worlds colliding within one frame. As we gaze upon this timeless photograph, it evokes feelings of empathy and admiration towards all mothers who navigate the delicate balance between nurturing their little ones and finding moments of respite for themselves. Bela Zola has masterfully captured a fleeting moment that encapsulates both the joys and challenges inherent in motherhood during that era.
