More about this scene

A summer's day visit to the country and a ride on an ancient tortoise - simple pleasures! Many small, enterprising landowners attempted to lay out 'zoos' and farm parks in the decades following the Second World War, and most vanished. The chance to give children the opportunity to feed and stroke the animals was irrestistible, although climbing all over a giant tortoise, as these children are seen doing here, would perhaps be unacceptable today.
