EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black and white portrait captured on the 1st of July, 1926, we are transported back in time to witness a Romany family at the heart of their nomadic lifestyle. Set against the picturesque backdrop of Epsom, Surrey, this print by H. F. Davis exudes an air of nostalgia and intrigue. The focal point of the image is undoubtedly the horse-drawn caravan that serves as both their home and means of transportation. It stands proudly behind them, showcasing their resourcefulness and resilience in creating a mobile sanctuary amidst a changing world. At closer inspection, our attention is drawn to one of the young girls seated near the entrance. With tenderness in her eyes and gentleness in her touch, she cradles a fox on her lap - an unexpected yet endearing addition to this charming scene. The presence of this wild creature speaks volumes about their harmonious relationship with nature; it symbolizes both companionship and survival instincts intertwined. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also offers us a glimpse into an often misunderstood way of life. Through its composition and subject matter, it invites us to reflect upon themes such as tradition, freedom, adaptability, and connection with nature. H. F. Davis's masterful lens has immortalized this Romany family's existence for generations to come – reminding us all that beauty can be found even within unconventional homes on wheels.
