EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the George Garland Collection, we are transported to a quaint countryside cottage in West Sussex. The image beautifully captures an age-old craft that has been passed down through generations - beehive making. The scene is set outside the rustic cottage, where an old man with a wise and weathered face stands proudly amidst his creation. His cap sits snugly on his head as he skillfully weaves straw together, fashioning it into the perfect home for buzzing inhabitants. The intricate details of the bee hive showcase both the craftsmanship and dedication required to create such a masterpiece. Surrounded by nature's beauty, our eyes wander to a water barrel nestled nearby, reflecting sunlight like liquid gold. It serves as a reminder of the essential role water plays in sustaining life within these hives. This photograph not only captures an artisan at work but also offers us a glimpse into simpler times when traditional skills were cherished and celebrated. It evokes feelings of nostalgia and admiration for those who dedicate themselves to preserving ancient crafts. Preserved by the West Sussex Record Office, this remarkable image reminds us of our connection to nature and highlights how human ingenuity can harmoniously coexist with its wonders.
