EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Searles, water diviner. 1935" we are transported back to the English rural life between the wars. Taken by renowned photographer John Topham in the 1930s, this image encapsulates a fascinating aspect of European history - water divining. The photograph showcases Searles, a skilled man known for his ability to locate ground water through dowsing. Standing tall against the backdrop of a rustic countryside, he exudes an air of wisdom and mystery. His weathered face tells tales of countless hours spent honing his craft and connecting with nature's hidden resources. Topham's monochrome composition adds depth and intensity to this snapshot from another era. The absence of color allows us to focus on Searles' determined expression as he holds his divining rod with unwavering confidence. It is as if time stands still in this moment frozen in history. This photograph not only captures an individual but also offers insight into rural life during that period - where people relied on unconventional methods like water divination for survival. It serves as a reminder of our ancestors' resourcefulness and their deep connection with the land they inhabited. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, let us appreciate both Topham's artistry and Searles' unique talent that allowed communities to thrive amidst challenging times.
