EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting photograph taken in the early 1960s, we are transported back in time to the picturesque English village of Barrowden, nestled in the heart of Rutland's River Welland Valley. The scene unfolds by the village pond, where the crystal-clear water reflects the vibrant colors of the surrounding lush green landscape. At the heart of the village, the Exeter Arms inn stands proudly, its red-brick facade and thatched roof inviting weary travelers and locals alike. Two young siblings, a girl in a floral dress and a boy in shorts and a sweater, are seen enjoying a moment of playful interaction by the water's edge. The girl, with her arms outstretched, appears to be trying to coax her brother into joining her for a game or a swim. The boy, with a mischievous grin, seems to be considering her proposal while taking in the beauty of their idyllic surroundings. The village green stretches out behind them, dotted with trees and daisies, creating a serene and pastoral tableau. The gentle flow of the River Welland adds to the tranquility of the scene, providing a soothing soundtrack to this moment in time. This photograph captures the essence of a simpler era, where the joys of childhood and the beauty of nature took center stage. It invites us to pause and appreciate the simple pleasures of life, transporting us to a time when life moved at a slower pace and the world seemed a little more magical. Barrowden, Rutland, England, 1960s.
