EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, titled "Going to the Spring" we are transported back in time to witness a scene of everyday life in the 19th century. The image captures a water carrier making their way towards a natural spring, with two large buckets hanging from either end of a long wooden pole balanced effortlessly on their shoulder. The composition is beautifully framed, allowing us to appreciate the intricate details of both the subject and the surrounding landscape. The water carrier's worn-out clothes and weathered face tell tales of hard work and resilience, while their determined stride suggests an unwavering commitment to fulfilling their duty. As our gaze extends beyond the central figure, we are greeted by lush greenery that surrounds them. Tall trees stand tall against an open sky, casting dappled shadows on the path ahead. There is a sense of tranquility in this serene setting - nature serving as both provider and sanctuary. This print by Paul Falconer Poole evokes feelings of nostalgia and admiration for those who labored tirelessly behind-the-scenes during simpler times. It serves as a poignant reminder that even mundane tasks can hold great significance within society. Displayed proudly at Bury Art Museum & Sculpture Centre in the UK, this artwork invites us to reflect upon our own relationship with water - its abundance or scarcity - and how it connects us all through shared human experiences across generations.
