EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we witness Joseph Brigden, a seasoned gardener at the age of 75, fearlessly undertaking the annual task of trimming a colossal yew tree hedge. Located along the side of a beautiful garden at Manor House in Betsham, Kent, this towering hedge stands an impressive 26 feet high. Joseph's dedication to his craft is truly remarkable as he has been tending to this magnificent hedge since he first started working here at the tender age of 13. Over six decades later, he continues to exhibit unwavering commitment and expertise in shaping its lush greenery. The image captures Joseph perched atop a sturdy ladder with shears in hand, ready to meticulously prune each branch with precision and care. His weathered face reflects years spent under the sun while nurturing nature's creations. This extraordinary photograph was taken on March 23rd, 1960 by General and has been colorized for enhanced visual impact. It serves as a testament not only to Joseph's lifelong dedication but also to the timeless beauty that can be found within well-maintained gardens. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, let us appreciate both Joseph's tireless efforts and the enduring splendor created by his skilled hands over many generations.
