EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to a chilly winter day in February 1938 at Shillinglee, West Sussex. The image showcases a distinguished rider atop his magnificent grey stallion, creating an enchanting sight against the backdrop of a vast open field. The rider exudes confidence as he sits tall in the saddle, donning a stylish hat that shields him from the biting cold. A groom stands nearby, attentively tending to the horse's bridle and reins. Their presence adds depth to the scene, emphasizing the bond between man and beast. The horse itself is truly remarkable; its sleek coat glistens under the soft winter light while it patiently awaits its next command. The rider's attire reflects both elegance and functionality - crisp white britches paired with sturdy riding boots demonstrate his commitment to style without compromising on practicality for this outdoor pursuit. This snapshot perfectly encapsulates equestrian life in rural England during the 1930s. Preserved within George Garland's extensive collection at West Sussex Record Office, this photograph offers us a glimpse into history through its timeless charm. It serves as a reminder of our enduring fascination with horses and their role in shaping our past. Let this image transport you to an era where horsemanship was not just a hobby but also an art form celebrated amidst nature's serene beauty.
