Preserving the Harvest - A Glimpse into the Women's Land Army during WWI
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print from Autumn 1917, we are transported back in time to Cornwall, where two resilient members of the First World War Women's Land Army Girls are diligently loading apples into a horse and cart. The image beautifully captures their unwavering determination and commitment to supporting the war effort through agricultural work. One woman stands proudly holding the reins of the sturdy horse, showcasing her confidence and skill in handling these powerful animals. Both women don attire that reflects their practicality and resilience - boots, gaiters, felt hats, and pale fabric overalls. These uniforms not only shield them from dirt but also symbolize their unity as they stand side by side amidst nature's bounty. Photographer Arthur William Jordan has masterfully captured this poignant moment in history when women stepped forward to fill vital roles traditionally held by men who had gone off to fight on foreign shores. Their efforts were instrumental in ensuring food security for both soldiers at war and civilians at home. This remarkable photograph serves as a testament to the strength and resourcefulness of these brave women who left behind traditional gender roles to contribute significantly during one of humanity's darkest times. It reminds us of their invaluable contribution while honoring their legacy within Cornish history.
