EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the serene beauty of West Ilsley Downs in Berkshire during the late 19th century. In this picturesque landscape, a group of elegant ladies and children can be seen strolling leisurely along a meandering path that leads towards Windmill Hill. The undulating hills, covered in lush green grass, create an idyllic setting for their peaceful walk. The focal point of the image is undoubtedly the windmill perched atop Windmill Hill. Its towering presence adds a touch of charm to the already breathtaking scenery. However, it is disheartening to learn that this magnificent structure fell into disrepair not long after this photograph was taken in the 1890s. The vast expanse of unfenced Downs surrounding them served as expansive sheep pastures, contributing to both the rural character and Victorian era aesthetics depicted in this image. It offers us a glimpse into a bygone era when nature's splendor intertwined seamlessly with human existence. Renowned photographer Henry Taunt skillfully captured this moment in time, immortalizing it for future generations to appreciate and admire. Through his lens, we are transported back to an era where simplicity reigned supreme and natural landscapes were cherished treasures.
