EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Boots off" captures a poignant moment in history. Taken by Harold Burdekin, it is part of a collection featured in the book "The Farming Front" by Fred Kitchen. The image depicts the end of a long day of manual labor on a farm during World War II. In this powerful scene, we see an exhausted farmer from England taking off his stiff boots after hours of hard work. His weary expression tells the story of physical exhaustion and dedication to his craft. As he sits outside his farmhouse, he prepares to enjoy a well-deserved break with a kettle of tea nearby. The photograph not only showcases the challenges faced by farmers during wartime but also offers insight into rural life and agricultural practices at that time. It provides us with glimpses into German farming culture as well, given its setting in northern Germany. With its striking composition and timeless quality, this print serves as a reminder of the resilience and determination exhibited by farmers throughout history. It invites viewers to reflect on the sacrifices made by those who worked tirelessly to sustain their communities amidst challenging circumstances.
