EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of quiet intimacy and connection between a young Gypsy girl and her family horse at an encampment in Surrey during the 1970s. The girl, dressed in a simple floral blouse and a pair of wellies, sits comfortably on the step of their wagon, her focus completely on the intricate plaiting of the horse's tail. The smoke from the nearby campfire drifts lazily in the background, adding to the sense of tranquility and nostalgia. The image is a poignant reminder of the rich history and traditions of the Gypsy community, a people who have long been associated with the nomadic life and the close bond between their families and their horses. The girl's deft fingers move nimbly through the horse's mane, each plait carefully woven together, a skill passed down through generations. The photograph, taken in 1973, is a snapshot of a bygone era, a time when life was simpler and more connected to the natural world. The Gypsy community, often misunderstood and marginalized, is shown here in a humanizing and compassionate light, as they go about their daily routines and maintain their age-old traditions. This photograph is a beautiful and poignant reminder of the resilience and strength of the Gypsy community, and the enduring bond between humans and animals. It is a snapshot of a moment in time, frozen in history, that speaks to the deeper human experience of love, connection, and the passage of time.
