EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken in the early 1920s, we witness a remarkable moment of recognition for Mr F H Whittington, the talented maker of Forest toys. His exquisite creation, Noah's Ark, has been personally acquired by none other than Queen Elizabeth herself during her visit to the British Industries Fair. The image transports us to Brockenhurst, Hants where Mr Whittington can be seen diligently working on his craft. Surrounded by tools and materials that bring his creations to life, he is captured in a moment of deep concentration as he meticulously carves and shapes each piece with skillful precision. This snapshot not only showcases Mr Whittington's dedication but also highlights the timeless appeal of traditional handmade toys. The fact that his work has caught the attention of royalty speaks volumes about its quality and craftsmanship. As we gaze upon this monochrome scene from between the wars, it serves as a reminder of an era when simplicity and artistry were highly valued. It is no wonder that this particular photograph has found its place within Europeana Photography collection – a testament to its historical significance. While we may never know what thoughts crossed Mr Whittington's mind at that very moment or how proud he must have felt having his creation chosen by Queen Elizabeth herself, one thing remains certain: this image immortalizes both an exceptional toy maker and an extraordinary piece of artistry that continues to captivate audiences even today.
