Cold Deep Snow Winter Buried Snowfall
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Southern England under snow" we are transported back in time to December 1927, a winter season that left the region buried deep beneath a thick blanket of snow. The image captures a heart-stopping moment near Biggin Hill Kent, where an unsuspecting pedestrian found themselves in a dangerous predicament. As we gaze at the scene, our eyes are drawn to the figure of a brave individual who had fallen into a treacherous 20 ft snow pit. With sheer determination and quick thinking, they managed to break their fall by clutching onto a nearby tree. This split-second decision saved them from further harm and allowed for their eventual rescue. The photograph beautifully encapsulates the harshness of winter as icy winds whip through the landscape, leaving everything coated in pristine white. The cold is palpable even through the lens, reminding us of nature's power and unpredictability during these colder months. "Between The Wars" has skillfully captured this extraordinary moment frozen in time - an emblematic reminder of human resilience amidst adversity. It serves as both a testament to our ability to overcome challenges and as an homage to those unsung heroes who risked their lives for others during such perilous times. This remarkable print transports us back nearly a century ago when Southern England was transformed into an enchanting yet treacherous wonderland by Mother Nature's snowy embrace.
