A Moment of Respite: A Family of Hop Pickers in Late 19th Century Britain This evocative photograph captures a heartwarming moment of rest and relaxation for a family of hop pickers in late 19th century Britain. The scene unfolds in the lush, green hops fields of Kent, where the labor-intensive process of picking and drying the hops for brewing beer was a seasonal tradition. The image features a diverse family, with a grandmother, parents, and their young children, all taking a much-needed break from their arduous work. The adults sit on bales of hay, while the children play and frolic around them. A baby, swaddled in layers of clothing, is held by his mother, who offers him a bottle. The family members enjoy refreshments, with a man passing around a jug of ale, while another offers a piece of bread to his young daughter. The adults take turns sipping from the jug, their faces expressing a sense of relief and contentment. The scene is one of simple pleasures, where the beauty of nature and the bonds of family provide a momentary respite from the grueling work of hop picking. The photograph offers a glimpse into the history of farming and agricultural labor in Britain during this period. Hop picking was a seasonal occupation that required long hours and hard work, and this image serves as a poignant reminder of the lives of the people who played a crucial role in the production of one of the country's most iconic beverages. This image, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, is a testament to the rich history of hop farming and the importance of family and community in the face of challenging working conditions.
