EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "At this rate she will soon be covered with hops!" by Between The Wars, we are transported back to the nostalgic era of 1937 in Sidcup, Kent. The image showcases a young hop picker at Beltring, immersed in her work while playfully collecting and gathering hops. With an air of innocence and determination, the little girl finds joy in her task as she swiftly picks the hops around her. Her tiny hands move rapidly through the lush greenery, plucking each hop with precision. As she fills her small basket, it becomes evident that if she continues at such a pace, she may very well end up completely covered with these fragrant flowers. The photograph perfectly captures both the industrious nature of child labor during that time period and the simple pleasures found within it. Despite being engaged in manual labor, there is an undeniable sense of playfulness emanating from the young girl's demeanor. This evocative snapshot serves as a poignant reminder of a bygone era when children were often called upon to contribute to their family's livelihoods. It invites us to reflect on how times have changed since then while also appreciating the resilience and spirit displayed by individuals like this little hop picker who found joy even amidst their responsibilities.
