EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the rich heritage and craftsmanship of Buckinghamshire, as depicted in a banner design created by a talented member of the Buckinghamshire Women's Institute. Painted with meticulous detail, the page features various elements that represent the essence of this picturesque county. The artwork beautifully captures scenes from everyday life in Buckinghamshire during 1937. A lace-maker diligently works on her delicate craft, while nearby, a chair bodger skillfully shapes wood into elegant pieces of furniture. The surrounding wildlife adds to the charm and tranquility of the countryside. Prominent landmarks are also highlighted within this stunning composition. The Windsor wheel-back chair symbolizes traditional craftsmanship, while Monks Risborough and The Guildhall in High Wycombe stand as testaments to local history and architecture. John Milton's cottage in Chalfont St Giles pays homage to one of England's greatest literary figures. The inclusion of beech trees emphasizes Buckinghamshire's natural beauty, while the Whiteleaf Cross at Princes Risborough serves as a reminder of its ancient past. Presented to Lady Denman, Chairman of the Women's Institute in June 1937, this illuminated book represents not only artistic talent but also celebrates an organization dedicated to empowering women across Britain. Since its formation during World War I, the Women's Institute has played a vital role in revitalizing rural communities and providing educational opportunities for women throughout the country. Published within "Women’s Institutes" by Cicely McCall (Collins, London) in 1943, this image is a testament to both historical significance and artistic excellence captured through photography.
