EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Beekeeping, 1908 BB98_06002" takes us back in time to the picturesque Stow Lodge in Wyck Hill, Wick Rissington, Gloucestershire. Here we witness a beekeeper engrossed in his age-old craft amidst the idyllic English countryside. Beekeeping has been an integral part of human history for centuries, with its origins possibly dating back to the first century BC. However, it was during the 18th and 19th centuries that this ancient practice gained significant importance in England. Bees were cherished not only for their golden honey but also for their precious wax. The photographer behind this remarkable image is Sydney Walter Alfred Newton who captured this momentous scene in 1908. The photograph showcases a beekeeper diligently tending to his buzzing companions while surrounded by beehives brimming with life. Through this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported into an era when nature's gifts were revered and utilized with great care and respect. The dedication of these beekeepers ensured a steady supply of honey and wax – essential commodities that enriched both culinary delights and everyday life. As we gaze upon this evocative image from Historic England's collection by Alfred Newton and Son, let us appreciate the timeless beauty of traditional craftsmanship intertwined with nature's delicate wonders.
