EDITORS COMMENTS
by Ethel Parkinson (1912) This evocative photograph, titled "Intruders," captures a poignant moment in time by English artist Ethel Parkinson in 1912. The image portrays a young couple, dressed in fashionable Edwardian attire, leisurely strolling through the picturesque countryside. Their carefree demeanor is in stark contrast to the tense scene unfolding in the foreground. A family of rabbits, huddled together in their burrow, gaze anxiously at the intruders, their safety and tranquility threatened by the unwitting couple's presence. The delicate balance of nature is disrupted, as the couple's footsteps may inadvertently crush the hidden burrow or startle the vulnerable creatures. Parkinson masterfully employs the use of light and shadow to create depth and texture in the scene, with the couple's figures illuminated against the dark, moody background. The intricate details of the rabbits' fur and the couple's clothing add to the overall sense of realism and intimacy. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the delicate relationship between humans and nature, and the potential consequences of our actions on the natural world. Ethel Parkinson's "Intruders" is a timeless work that continues to resonate with viewers over a century after it was created, inviting us to reflect on our own impact on the environment and the creatures that call it home.
