EDITORS COMMENTS
Gwydir Castle: A Peaceful Interlude This photograph, taken by Norman Synge Waller Budd in 1959, transports us to the tranquil grounds of Gwydir Castle in Wales. The image showcases a serene moment in time as a regal peacock, its iridescent tail feathers spread in all their glory, leans in for a peck at a tray of seeds. The elderly gardener, seemingly oblivious to the spectacle, takes a moment to rest on a nearby bench, soaking up the warm sun rays along the gravel path. The ornate topiary hedges and stone walls of the castle estate provide a backdrop to this idyllic scene. The path, lined with meticulously trimmed hedges, leads the eye through the lush greenery, inviting us to explore further. The elderly gardener, with his worn hat and weathered hands, adds a sense of history and tradition to the scene. The peacock, with its vibrant plumage and distinctive call, is a symbol of pride and beauty in the castle's gardens. Its focus on the seeds in the tray is a reminder of the natural cycle of life and the harmony between man and nature. The gardener, in his peaceful slumber, embodies the tranquility and contentment that can be found in the simple pleasures of tending to a garden. Norman Synge Waller Budd's photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, inviting us to appreciate the beauty and serenity of Gwydir Castle and its enchanting grounds.
