EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the charming village of Cobham in Kent, England, during the 1930s. The focal point of the image is "The Leather Bottle" a historic inn that has stood proudly for centuries. Its timber-framed exterior exudes an aged beauty and tells tales of bygone eras. In this snapshot, we see a group of men gathered outside the pub, enjoying a sunny day in the countryside. One man stands out among them – could he be Charles Dickens himself? Known for his love of pubs and his connection to Cobham, it's not far-fetched to imagine him here, seeking inspiration for one of his literary masterpieces. A delightful surprise awaits as our eyes wander towards a loyal companion at their feet – a dog faithfully accompanying its owner on this leisurely outing. This simple detail adds warmth and humanity to an already picturesque scene. The color palette chosen for this print enhances its nostalgic appeal, transporting us back in time. The architectural details are beautifully captured; every beam and brick seems to whisper stories from generations past. Titled "The Leather Bottle" as part of W. D. & H. O. Wills' second series on old inns, this photograph captures both history and culture within its frame. It serves as a reminder that even ordinary moments can hold extraordinary significance when viewed through the lens of time.
