EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the year 1925, where Lamorna Birch, a renowned painter and artist from Cornwall, is being filmed by Claude Friese-Greene for his groundbreaking documentary "The Open Road". The image captures a moment of artistic brilliance as Birch stands amidst the picturesque landscapes of Cornwall, her easel set up before her. Birch's passion for capturing the beauty of nature shines through in this photograph. With brush in hand and eyes focused intently on her subject, she effortlessly blends colors onto canvas with masterful strokes. The serene atmosphere surrounding her seems to reflect the tranquility that can be found within her art. As one of Britain's most celebrated landscape painters during the early 20th century, Lamorna Birch was known for her ability to evoke emotions through vivid depictions of coastal scenes and rural life. Her works often showcased the unique charm and rugged beauty of Cornwall. Claude Friese-Greene's decision to include Birch in his film speaks volumes about both artists' dedication to showcasing British talent and their shared appreciation for Cornwall's enchanting landscapes. This collaboration between filmmaker and painter undoubtedly contributed greatly to preserving these mesmerizing vistas for future generations. This print serves as a testament not only to Lamorna Birch's artistic prowess but also as a glimpse into an era when filmmakers like Claude Friese-Greene sought to capture Britain's natural wonders on celluloid. It reminds us that art has always been intertwined with our desire
