This print captures a serene moment in English rural life during the 1930s. The image showcases the picturesque Watercress beds in Footscray, Kent, lovingly cared for by Mr. and Mrs. Johnstone. As they stroll across the bridge, their presence adds a touch of charm to this idyllic scene. The monochrome aesthetic beautifully emphasizes the simplicity and tranquility of this era between the wars. It transports us back to a time when nature played an essential role in people's lives, particularly in cultivating watercress. Men can be seen diligently farming while collecting and picking baskets full of fresh watercress. In this snapshot, we witness not only the hard work involved but also the strong bond shared by Mr. and Mrs. Johnstone as they undertake their daily tasks together. This couple exemplifies dedication and unity as they navigate through life side by side.
