EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Wet Harvest" we are transported back to the year 1946 in Godstone, Surrey, England. Volunteer workers, clad in army capes provided for them, stand helplessly as heavy rain beats down on the crops at a local farm. The scene captures the frustration and disappointment of these mid-adult women who have dedicated their time and effort to harvesting. As they gather together in a rural field surrounded by haystacks, their rear view suggests a sense of unity and resilience despite the challenging circumstances. Their clothing is soaked through from the relentless rain, emphasizing their dedication to completing the harvest despite nature's interference. The photographer Reg Speller skillfully captures this poignant moment that speaks volumes about human perseverance in agriculture. The large group of objects - both natural (crops) and man-made (army capes) - further emphasizes the scale of this collective effort. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of how unpredictable weather conditions can impact farming communities. It also highlights the importance of teamwork and solidarity when faced with adversity. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot frozen in time, we cannot help but feel empathy for these brave women who continue to watch over their crops with determination etched on their faces while Mother Nature tests their resolve.
