EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from 1733 showcases the charming Mrs. Snookes house in Ringmer, Sussex, England. The image transports us back to a bygone era, where we catch a glimpse of the home belonging to Rebecca Snooke, a beloved aunt of renowned naturalist Gilbert White. Rebecca Snooke's residence held great significance as it served as an annual retreat for her nephew Gilbert White. The famous naturalist would visit his aunt in Sussex and spend cherished moments within these very walls. It was here that their bond deepened and where Timothy the tortoise became an integral part of their lives. Timothy, who resided with Rebecca for an astonishing four decades, achieved fame through Gilbert White's groundbreaking work "The Natural History of Selborne". Following Rebecca's passing, Timothy found himself transported to Selborne by his devoted nephew. This extraordinary tortoise continued to captivate hearts and minds with its longevity and unique presence. Through this enchanting engraving captured by an anonymous English artist from the 18th century, we are granted a window into history - witnessing not only Mrs. Snookes' beautiful abode but also glimpsing the profound connection between family members and nature itself. As we admire this print today, let us reflect on the enduring power of familial love and our shared fascination with the wonders of our natural world.
