EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "He wanted to Be alone" we are transported back to the 1960s, immersing ourselves in a moment of tradition and camaraderie. The image captures apprentice Willie Morgan, a young man of 21 years from Renfrew, as he undergoes the time-honored frolic that accompanies his journeyman cooper initiation in Glasgow. Despite his initial desire for solitude, Willie's infectious smile reveals his resilience and determination as he emerges from the bar el initiation damp but undismayed. Surrounded by a group of fellow young men, all dressed in their finest attire, this photograph encapsulates both the customs and spirit of the era. The focal point of the image is undoubtedly Willie himself - a symbol of youthful ambition and dedication to mastering his craft. His presence serves as a reminder that even amidst age-old traditions and rituals, there is room for individuality and personal growth. This evocative snapshot not only showcases an important milestone in Willie's life but also provides us with a glimpse into a bygone era filled with barrel-making expertise, cherished customs, and shared moments over drinks. As we delve into our collective memory lane through prints like these, we can't help but appreciate the significance of preserving such rich cultural heritage for generations to come.
