EDITORS COMMENTS
- Easter 1948 In this print from the George Garland Collection, we are transported back to Easter 1948 in West Sussex. The image captures a hiker standing next to a stone wall, his face filled with dismay as he surveys the damage done to his shorts. With a torn rip running down the fabric, it is clear that an unexpected mishap has occurred during his adventurous journey. The hiker's worn-out haversack and knapsack rest against the wall, evidence of his exploration through rugged terrains. His disheveled appearance suggests that he has encountered numerous challenges along the way. However, it is this particular moment captured by George Garland that encapsulates both frustration and resilience. As we observe him leaning on a stile, contemplating how best to proceed with damaged attire, we can't help but admire his determination. Despite facing setbacks and obstacles throughout his expedition, he remains undeterred. This photograph serves as a reminder of our own journeys in life – sometimes unforeseen circumstances arise which threaten to derail us. Yet like this resilient hiker who refuses to let ripped shorts define him or hinder his progress, we too must find strength within ourselves to overcome adversity. Preserved at the West Sussex Record Office under Ref. No. Garland N29905, this image not only documents one man's misfortune but also symbolizes human tenacity and perseverance in the face of challenges – an enduring testament for generations yet unborn.
