EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the introspective and contemplative gaze of Welsh poet, William Henry Davies, also known by his pen name Evans. Born on February 20, 1871, in Swansea, South Wales, Davies is best known for his poem, "Leisure," which begins with the poignant question, "What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare?" The image, taken between the years 1871 and 1940, depicts Davies in deep thought, sitting on a wooden bench in a serene outdoor setting. The peaceful surroundings, with their lush greenery and dappled sunlight, seem to reflect the poet's inner contemplation. Davies' furrowed brow and thoughtful expression suggest a man deeply engaged in introspection, pondering the meaning of life and the importance of taking time to appreciate the beauty of the natural world. Davies' poetry, which often explored themes of nature, simplicity, and the passage of time, resonated deeply with readers during his lifetime and continues to inspire generations of poets and readers today. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of taking time to reflect and appreciate the world around us, much like Davies did in his own work. William Henry Davies, who passed away on December 3, 1940, left behind a rich literary legacy that continues to captivate and inspire readers. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the life of this influential poet, offering a glimpse into the mind of a man who understood the importance of taking time to stand and stare.
