EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing five men embarking on a thrilling hunting expedition in the picturesque West Sussex countryside. The year is 1938, and these adventurous souls are armed with guns and rifles as they navigate through a rustic country lane bordered by towering trees. Dressed in their rugged attire, complete with wellington boots to conquer any terrain, these hunters exude an air of determination and camaraderie. The radiant sunshine casts gentle shadows across the scene, illuminating the fence that separates them from their prey. Their moustaches add a touch of old-world charm to this snapshot from history. It's evident that this group shares not only a passion for hunting but also an appreciation for nature's beauty. Preserved within the George Garland Collection at the West Sussex Record Office, this photograph stands as a testament to our rich rural heritage. It allows us to glimpse into an era when hunting was both sport and sustenance—a way of life intertwined with the land we call home. As we admire this remarkable image today, let it serve as a reminder of our connection to nature and how traditions have evolved over time. Let us cherish moments like these while respecting wildlife conservation efforts that ensure future generations can continue to enjoy the splendor of West Sussex's countryside.
