EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of a donkey from the quaint fishing village of Clovelly in Devon, England, during the late Victorian era. Dated back to the 19th century, this photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to an era of horse-drawn carts, simple pleasures, and rustic charm. The donkey, with its shaggy coat and expressive eyes, stands patiently next to a wooden cart, its ears perked up as if listening to the gentle chatter of the villagers. The cobblestone streets of Clovelly, lined with whitewashed cottages and colorful doors, add to the idyllic scene. The Edwardian period, which followed the Victorian era, is also reflected in this photograph with the use of a lantern slide. Lantern slides were popular during this time for home entertainment, allowing families to project images onto a screen using a lantern. This photograph, with its intriguing subject and timeless appeal, would have made for an engaging and memorable presentation. The early 20th century was a period of change and progress, but this image of a Clovelly donkey reminds us of the simple joys and beauty of a bygone era. The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection, from which this photograph is sourced, is a treasure trove of historical images that offer a unique perspective into the past. This photograph, in particular, is a must-have for anyone with an interest in history, photography, or the English countryside.
