Happy Lane Nostalgic Rural Tanner Holly
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from November 1932, we are transported back in time to Upperton, Petworth, a serene countryside lane nestled in the heart of West Sussex. The image captures the essence of rural life during that era and evokes a sense of nostalgia for simpler times. A distinguished gentleman stands tall amidst the picturesque surroundings, his presence exuding an air of contentment and happiness. With a warm smile on his face, he seems at ease in this idyllic setting adorned with holly bushes that hint at the approaching festive season. The photograph is part of the esteemed George Garland Collection housed at the West Sussex Record Office. It serves as a testament to Mr. Garland's keen eye for capturing moments frozen in time, preserving them for future generations to appreciate. As we gaze upon this snapshot from yesteryears, we can't help but imagine what life was like for those who walked these very lanes decades ago. Perhaps our gentleman was a local tanner or someone simply enjoying an afternoon stroll through nature's embrace. This print not only offers us a glimpse into history but also invites us to reflect on our own connection with nature and how it has shaped our lives throughout time. It reminds us to cherish these simple pleasures and find joy in embracing the beauty that surrounds us every day.
