1930s Cottage Fence Road Sunshine Tanner Trees Walking Stick Winter Shade
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from January 1935, we are transported back in time to a quaint country lane in West Sussex. The image showcases a distinguished gentleman leaning on his trusty walking stick, exuding an air of elegance and sophistication. Clad in his winter attire, he stands against the backdrop of a rustic wooden fence that encloses a charming cottage. The scene is beautifully captured with the play of light and shadow created by the interlacing branches of leafless trees. Despite being taken during the colder months, there is a subtle warmth emanating from the sun's rays filtering through the canopy above. This snapshot offers us a glimpse into life in rural England during the 1930s. The man's posture suggests both weariness and resilience as he navigates along this tranquil road. Perhaps he is returning home after completing his day's work as a tanner or simply taking an afternoon stroll to enjoy nature's beauty. As we admire this print from the George Garland Collection at West Sussex Record Office, it serves as a reminder of simpler times when people found solace in their surroundings and took pleasure in small moments like these. It invites us to reflect on our own connection with nature and appreciate its timeless allure regardless of changing seasons or passing decades.
