EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "At home at Eartham, June 1940" takes us back in time to a quaint rural village nestled in the heart of West Sussex. The image showcases a local resident, comfortably seated by the front door of his charming thatched cottage. With his loyal companion resting faithfully at his feet, this snapshot beautifully captures the essence of a peaceful countryside life. As we gaze upon this scene frozen in time, we are transported to an era where simplicity and tradition reigned supreme. The man's weathered face tells tales of hard work and resilience, while his warm smile hints at contentment found within these humble walls. Surrounding him is an idyllic landscape adorned with lush greenery and vibrant flowers, painting a picture-perfect backdrop for this tranquil abode. The presence of the dog adds an extra layer of warmth and companionship to this already inviting setting. A faithful friend who has undoubtedly shared countless moments with its owner throughout the years. Preserved within the Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office, this photograph by George Garland serves as a reminder of our deep-rooted connection to nature and simpler times gone by. It encapsulates the spirit of community and highlights how even amidst global turmoil during June 1940, life continued on with unwavering strength in rural West Sussex
