EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the spirit of pilgrimage during the medieval period, as a group of travelers, led by a prominent Miller in the foreground, make their way along a winding road towards Canterbury. Dressed in simple robes and carrying their belongings, the pilgrims journey on foot, while some ride horseback, their faces set with determination and devotion. The year is circa 1387, and this scene is reminiscent of the tales penned by Geoffrey Chaucer in his seminal work, "The Canterbury Tales." Chaucer's published collection of stories, featuring a diverse group of pilgrims, is considered a literary masterpiece and a cornerstone of English literature. The Miller, a character from Chaucer's tales, is depicted here in the foreground, his strong and sturdy frame suggesting his occupation as a miller. He wears a conical hat, a typical headgear for millers during this era, and carries a staff to aid him in his journey. The procession moves steadily along the road, with the rolling hills and lush greenery providing a picturesque backdrop to their pilgrimage. The image transports us back to a time when travel was an adventure, and the journey was just as important as the destination. This photograph, from the Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to imagine the tales and stories that unfolded during the Middle Ages as pilgrims, like the Miller, made their way to Canterbury and beyond.
