EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Haymaking, August 1938" takes us on a nostalgic journey to the heart of rural life in West Sussex. The lens of renowned photographer George Garland beautifully captures a scene that epitomizes the essence of farming and agriculture during this era. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness a young girl amidst the laborious process of haymaking. With her sleeves rolled up and straw hat shielding her from the summer sun, she exudes determination as she diligently works alongside seasoned farmers. Together, they meticulously gather freshly cut hay and arrange it into neat stacks upon rustic wooden racks. The image transports us to an idyllic countryside setting where hard work intertwines with nature's bounty. The rolling fields stretch endlessly under vast blue skies while birdsong fills the air. It is a moment that encapsulates both simplicity and resilience; an ode to those who dedicated their lives to cultivating our land. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's esteemed Garland Collection, this photograph serves as a poignant reminder of our agricultural heritage. It invites us to reflect upon how far we have come while honoring those who paved the way for modern farming practices. As we gaze at this timeless piece captured by George Garland's discerning eye, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also the stories it holds—stories of perseverance, community spirit, and our unbreakable bond with nature itself.
