EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in time in Athelney, Somerset, where a man is diligently stacking bundles of dried willow rods known as withes onto a cart. The withes are destined to be used for wickerwork and basket-making, showcasing the traditional craftsmanship and rural livelihoods that have been integral to British farming history.
The scene exudes a sense of nostalgia and historical significance, transporting us back to the 1950s when such practices were commonplace in rural communities like Athelney. The meticulous way in which the man arranges the rods on the cart speaks to his expertise and dedication to his craft.
As we gaze upon this image, we can almost hear the sounds of nature surrounding him - birds chirping, leaves rustling in the wind. It is a reminder of simpler times when life was lived at a slower pace and people relied on their own hands to create practical items from natural materials.
The stacks of rods against the backdrop of rolling hills evoke a sense of peace and tranquility, highlighting the beauty of Somerset's countryside. This print serves as a window into our agricultural past, celebrating both the artistry and hard work that went into producing everyday objects like baskets.
