The End of the Game documents Africa's wildlife crisis through two decades of Peter Beard's photography, capturing elephants, rhinos, and hippos against the backdrop of human-driven environmental depletion. Its images function as both historical record and reflection, tracing what these losses reveal about human ideas of progress. The work spans a landmark period of ecological change, presenting the material with the weight of an unavoidable rather than cautionary account.
An indispensable historical document of Africa’s wildlife crisis, this landmark work reveals a continent depleted by human ideas of progress. Across two decades of Peter Beard’s images of elephants, rhinos, and hippos, it captures not only what was lost, but what these losses reflect in us. What once felt like warning now feels unavoidable. In a time of accelerating environmental collapse, this work asks not what we have lost, but who we are becoming.
