Zoo artist goes in for 'realism'!. An artist with the kind of studio that most painters dream about after a party is Keeper George Gammon of the London Zoo. With snakes and other reptilian residents as near neighbours, Mr Gammon is repainting the huge Nile scene in the Zoo's Reptile House. Normally Mr Gammon is keeper-in-charge of the Small Cats' House but because he is also an expert painter he has been given the job of repainting all the scenic backgrounds at the Reptile and Insect Houses. The Nile scene is the largest single 'canvas' in the Reptile House. It was originally painted when the House was built in 1927 and became dilapidated during the war when it was damaged by blast from a flying bomb. Photo shows: Keeper George Gammon repainting the Nile scene undistrubed by the large snake beside him. 23 September 1946.
