EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history as three men cyclists pause to admire the two iconic windmills at Outwood, Surrey, England. The left windmill, dating back to 1665, still stands proudly today as a testament to the region's rich industrial past. In contrast, the right windmill, built in 1790, met its demise in a powerful gale that swept through the area in 1960.
The image transports us back to October of an unspecified year - likely sometime between the 1930s and 1960 - when these cyclists took a break from their touring adventures to appreciate these impressive structures. The men seem fascinated by the historical significance of these mills, which were once vital machines driving industry in this part of England.
As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we can't help but feel a sense of nostalgia for an era long gone. The cyclists' admiration for these ancient landmarks serves as a reminder of how our connection to history shapes our present-day experiences. This print is not just a visual delight; it's also a poignant reminder of the enduring legacy left behind by generations before us.
