EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the peaceful countryside of Bignor in 1934. In this timeless image, we see a hardworking farmer accompanied by his two majestic horses as they traverse a serene country lane. The man's weathered face reflects years of toil under the sun, while his hands firmly grasp the reins, guiding these magnificent creatures with expertise. The idyllic rural setting is beautifully captured, showcasing rolling hills and lush greenery that stretch as far as the eye can see. The South Downs provide a breathtaking backdrop, their gentle slopes adding depth and character to this picturesque scene. A charming hedgerow lines the lane, its branches reaching out like welcoming arms. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, it becomes evident that there is more than meets the eye. This photograph encapsulates not only an era but also a way of life deeply rooted in tradition and connection with nature. It speaks volumes about the symbiotic relationship between man and beast - one built on trust, mutual respect, and shared labor. George Garland's collection has preserved this remarkable moment for future generations to appreciate. Thanks to West Sussex County Council's dedication to safeguarding our heritage through their record office, we are able to glimpse into history and witness firsthand how our ancestors worked harmoniously with nature in these tranquil landscapes
