EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "A woman boils the kettle for her cup of tea, in the main room of her cottage" we are transported back to 1930s Kent, England. The image beautifully captures a glimpse into the life of a hardworking woman, who is both mother and housewife. Despite facing poverty and belonging to the working class, she exudes strength and resilience. The focal point of the picture is undoubtedly the Rayburn range cooker that not only serves as a source of warmth but also symbolizes comfort and coziness within this humble abode. The loose covers on the chintz sofa add an element of charm to the living room while highlighting simplicity in its design. Dressed in practical boots, an apron or overall - perhaps coverall - this determined woman goes about her daily chores with unwavering dedication. With grace and skillful hands, she tends to domestic duties such as cooking using a traditional oven. This photograph by Between The Wars transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate the beauty found amidst challenging circumstances. It reminds us of an era where people relied on their own resourcefulness rather than modern conveniences. Through this image, we catch a glimpse into history; one that celebrates strong women who carried their families through difficult times with love and perseverance.
