EDITORS COMMENTS
August 1967: A Summer of Love and Liberation at Woburn Park, Bedfordshire This evocative photograph captures the spirit of the 1960s counterculture movement in Britain during the iconic 'Love-In' at Woburn Park in Bedfordshire. Two hippy men, dressed in vibrant and patterned clothing, share a bottle of Moet champagne, their faces radiant with joy and camaraderie. The men's long hair, adorned with flowers and headbands, are a testament to their rejection of societal norms and their embrace of individuality and self-expression. The Love-In at Woburn Park was a pivotal moment in British youth culture, drawing thousands of young people from across the country to celebrate peace, love, and freedom. The scene was a riot of color and creativity, with attendees donning tie-dye shirts, bell-bottom jeans, and intricate beadwork. The air was thick with the scent of incense and the sound of folk music, as young people danced and sang together in the sun-drenched fields. This photograph is a snapshot of a moment in time, a moment when the world seemed to shift and the possibilities for personal freedom and self-expression seemed endless. The men in the photograph hold their bottle of Moet champagne aloft, a symbol of their defiance against the rigid conventions of the past and their embrace of the new, liberated world that was taking shape around them.
