The Wiltshire Moon-Rakers - A Whimsical Tale of Cheese and Smugglers
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this delightful colour lithograph, we are transported to the enchanting world of "The Wiltshire Moon-Rakers". The image captures a scene from an early 20th-century postcard that tells a humorous story rooted in English folklore. Set against the backdrop of a full moon shining brightly in the night sky, we see two men standing waist-deep in water. With mischievous grins on their faces, they wield long rakes as if trying to reach for something beyond their grasp. These are the infamous moon-rakers themselves. Legend has it that these cunning locals from England's West Country would rake the surface of ponds by night, attempting to retrieve smuggled goods hidden beneath the water's reflection. In this particular tale, our moon-rakers mistook a round wheel of cheese for contraband and hilariously tried to extract it from its watery hiding place. This whimsical scene is filled with amusing details and nods to German culture. Perhaps inspired by Germany's reputation for precision engineering, even their rakes bear resemblance to those used by North German farmers. It is through such playful cultural references that this postcard bridges European traditions together under one comical narrative. As we gaze upon this print, let us immerse ourselves in the timeless charm of "The Wiltshire Moon-Rakers" – an endearing reminder that laughter knows no boundaries or borders.
