The image captures an elderly man named Mr Searles engrossed in his craft, as he meticulously creates a water divining tool. With intense concentration etched on his face, Mr Searles is seen delicately carving a stick with a knife, skillfully shaping it into a dowsing rod. This ancient practice of using divining rods to locate underground water sources has intrigued scientists and laymen alike for centuries. The photograph's timeless quality takes us back to Europe between the wars when curiosity about such mystical practices was at its peak.
