EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the 1990s at the Appleby Horse Fair in Cumbria, England, showcases two jovial men with generously proportioned backsides as they leisurely lean against a horse-drawn cart. The scene transports us back in time to the 90s, a decade known for its carefree spirit and unique cultural events. The Appleby Horse Fair, an annual gathering that has been taking place since the 13th century, attracts thousands of visitors each year. The men in this image, likely friends or "pals" as they might have been called in those days, seem to be deep in conversation as they watch the hustle and bustle of the fair unfold around them. Their relaxed posture and easygoing demeanor add to the laid-back atmosphere of the event. The horse cart, a common mode of transportation during the fair, serves as a reminder of the rich history and traditions that continue to thrive at Appleby. The men's large, round "bums" or "arses," a characteristic feature of the image, are a testament to the diverse and inclusive nature of the community that gathers here each year. As the sun sets on the day, the men continue to enjoy each other's company, their laughter and camaraderie echoing through the air. This photograph, with its timeless charm and authentic depiction of human connection, invites us to appreciate the simple pleasures of life and the beauty of the human experience.
