EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the idyllic countryside of West Sussex in August 1932. The image showcases a scene straight out of a bygone era, as farmers diligently collect harvested hay on a rustic cart. The George Garland Collection has preserved this snapshot of rural life, offering us a glimpse into the hard work and simplicity that defined farming during this time. The photograph is filled with charming details that transport us to this era. A horse, adorned with an old-fashioned collar, patiently stands beside the cart while children eagerly assist their parents in loading the freshly cut hay onto it. The towering haystacks nearby indicate a successful harvest season, as well as the importance of preserving food for livestock during long winters. Surrounded by lush fields and under the shade of an ancient tree, these dedicated farmers showcase their resilience and resourcefulness. With pitchforks in hand and sweat glistening on their brows, they demonstrate their commitment to providing for their community. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are reminded of simpler times when manual labor was at the heart of agricultural practices. This evocative photograph captures not only a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to human perseverance amidst nature's bountiful offerings.
