EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the tumultuous backdrop of the First World War, a quiet revolution was taking place in the rural heartland of England. In the picturesque village of Stoke Climsland, nestled within the expansive Duchy of Cornwall estate, an extraordinary group of women were making their mark on the agricultural landscape. This evocative photograph captures the spirit of one such volunteer, Miss C.M. Matheson, a novelist by trade, as she lends her skills and strength to the Women's Land Army. Established in 1917, the Women's Land Army was a voluntary organization that aimed to fill the labor gap left by men who had been called to the front lines. Women from all walks of life answered the call, trading their city lives for the simple pleasures and challenges of rural farm work. Miss Matheson, with her pen in one hand and a broom in the other, embodies the spirit of adaptability and resilience that defined the Women's Land Army. As the sun casts long shadows over the rolling hills and verdant fields, Miss Matheson stands as a testament to the indomitable spirit of the women who worked tirelessly to keep the farms running during the war. The Women's Land Army played a crucial role in ensuring the nation's food supply remained steady, contributing significantly to the war effort. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices and achievements of these remarkable women, who left their mark on history as the unsung heroes of the First World War.
