EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to a significant moment in British political history. Captured by the talented photographer Bill Rowntree, it features Jeremy Thorpe, the charismatic Liberal MP, outside near Barnstaple on September 12th, 1973. The image exudes an air of determination as Thorpe stands confidently with his finger pointed forward. His piercing gaze reveals a man deeply committed to his political cause and ready to make his mark on North Devon's political landscape. In the backdrop of this rural setting, we witness a snapshot of Thorpe's connection with the people he represented. The photograph beautifully encapsulates both his passion for politics and his dedication to serving the community. Thorpe was known for being an influential figure within liberal politics during the 1970s. As leader of the Liberal Party from 1967 to 1976, he played a pivotal role in shaping its policies and direction at that time. Bill Rowntree's expert composition captures not only Thorpe's physical presence but also hints at his magnetic personality that drew supporters towards him. This print serves as a reminder of an era when politicians were seen as larger-than-life figures who inspired hope and change among their constituents. As we delve into this nostalgic piece from Memory Lane Prints' collection, we are transported back to a time when Jeremy Thorpe stood tall outside Barnstaple - symbolizing both ambition and progress in British politics.
