EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to a simpler time, capturing the essence of rural life in Broxted, Essex on a warm summer's day. The year is 1946, just after the end of World War II, and the countryside is slowly recovering from the scars of conflict. In this idyllic scene, George Greenwell skillfully frames a vast corn field stretching as far as the eye can see. The image transports us to an era when agriculture was at the heart of this quaint village's identity. The neatly aligned rows of corn stalks stand tall against a backdrop of rolling hills and endless skies. It serves as a testament to the hard work and resilience of local farmers who dedicated their lives to nurturing these bountiful fields. Broxted Parish comes alive in this snapshot; its post-war spirit evident in every blade of grass swaying gently with the breeze. As we gaze upon this scenic landscape, we are reminded that even amidst hardship and uncertainty, nature continues to thrive. Greenwell's photograph captures not only an industry but also a way of life deeply rooted in tradition. It invites us to reflect on our connection with nature and appreciate its beauty through his lens. This stunning piece offers us an opportunity to step back in time and immerse ourselves in the simplicity and tranquility that once defined rural England during one unforgettable summer day over seven decades ago.
