EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from July 1933, we are transported to the serene countryside of Goodwood. A wise and weathered shepherd sits comfortably under the shade of a majestic tree, his loyal sheepdog faithfully at his side. The image exudes a sense of tranquility as the shepherd gazes out across his vast field, dotted with contented sheep grazing peacefully. Every detail in this photograph tells a story: the shepherd's rugged appearance with his long beard and worn hat speaks volumes about a life dedicated to tending these gentle creatures. His trusty crook rests against the tree trunk, an essential tool that has guided countless herds throughout generations. Photographed by George Garland, this remarkable piece belongs to the esteemed Garland collection housed within West Sussex Record Office. Its historical significance is undeniable; it captures not only a moment frozen in time but also offers us a glimpse into rural life during an era defined by simplicity and hard work. As we admire this poignant scene, let us reflect on the timeless bond between man and nature - one that transcends language barriers or technological advancements. This photograph serves as a reminder of our shared connection with the land and its inhabitants, reminding us to cherish traditions passed down through generations while appreciating their continued relevance in our modern world.
