EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image from the early 1900s, showcasing the picturesque village of Dunster, Devon. The photograph, taken from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us to a bygone era of Victorian and Edwardian charm. Nestled in the heart of the Exmoor National Park, Dunster's medieval architecture and tranquil setting have remained largely unchanged over the decades. In this photograph, we see the village's ancient castle towering above the thatched cottages and winding streets. But what truly sets this image apart is the vintage vehicles that grace the scene. Two veteran cars, likely from the late 1800s or early 1900s, can be seen parked near the village entrance. Their intricate designs and horse-drawn counterparts showcase the ingenuity and innovation of the time. The lantern slide, an early form of photographic projection, adds to the nostalgic feel of the image. It's a reminder of how photography was once a novelty and a way to capture and share memories with others. As we gaze at this enchanting photograph, we're transported back to a time when life moved at a slower pace, and the simple pleasures of village life were cherished. The vintage cars, the castle, and the quaint cottages all combine to create a snapshot of history that continues to captivate and inspire us today.
