EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Katherine MacFee takes us back in time to the picturesque village of Burton Bradstock in West Dorset during the 1920s. The image beautifully captures a view looking south along the High Street, where quaint houses and charming cottages line the road. The architectural gem known as Rock House stands prominently on the left side of the frame, exuding an air of history and character. In this nostalgic scene, a young girl steals our attention as she walks past Rock House with an innocent curiosity. Her presence adds life and movement to this otherwise serene villagescape, reminding us that even in quieter times, people were always at the heart of these rural communities. The composition showcases not only the natural beauty of Burton Bradstock but also highlights its timeless charm. From cobblestone streets to rustic buildings adorned with climbing ivy, every element tells a story of a simpler era long gone by. Katherine MacFee's skillful capture transports us into this idyllic setting, inviting us to imagine ourselves strolling down that very same High Street all those years ago. It serves as a reminder that while progress may have transformed many landscapes over time, there are still hidden pockets where history remains intact – waiting for curious souls like ours to discover them once again.
