EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, taken in the 1960s, we witness the quintessential scene of the English harvest at Black Dog, near Crediton in Devon. The golden stooks of wheat, standing tall against the backdrop of a clear blue sky, stretch as far as the eye can see, forming an undulating sea of ripened grain. The sun casts long shadows over the field, adding depth and texture to the scene, while the occasional tree in the distance provides a splash of green against the golden hues. Harvest time was, and still is, a significant moment in the agricultural calendar, representing the culmination of months of hard work and dedication from the farmers and their laborers. In this image, we can see the workers in the foreground, their figures dwarfed by the vast expanse of the field, as they carefully arrange the wheat into stooks. This traditional method of harvesting, known as stooking, involved stacking the harvested wheat into small pyramid-shaped bundles, which would then be left to dry in the sun before being threshed and milled. The scene exudes an idyllic and atmospheric charm, transporting us back to a simpler time in rural England's history. The peaceful, pastoral setting is a reminder of the beauty and bounty of the English countryside, and the enduring connection between the people and the land. This photograph is a testament to the rich heritage of farming and agriculture in Britain, and a celebration of the natural rhythms of the rural way of life.
