EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection, showcasing the picturesque village of Lettermore in the west of Ireland during the early 1900s. The serene scene transports us to a bygone era, where the simple pleasures of rural life were cherished. Nestled amidst the rolling hills and lush greenery, the quaint cottages exude a sense of charm and tranquility. Smoke gently rises from the chimneys, indicating the warmth and comfort within. The village church, with its tall spire, stands proudly at the heart of the community, a testament to the strong spiritual bonds that once held this village together. In the foreground, a young boy, dressed in Edwardian attire, holds a lantern, perhaps on his way to tend to the animals or complete an errand. His expression is filled with curiosity and wonder, reflecting the sense of adventure that comes with growing up in a rural community. The image also offers a glimpse into the pastoral way of life, with farmers tending to their livestock and women working in the fields. The simple joys of community life are evident, as villagers gather around the local well, drawing water for their daily needs. This vintage photograph is a beautiful reminder of the rich history and traditions of rural Ireland during the early 1900s. It invites us to reflect on the simple pleasures of life and the strong bonds that once held communities together.
