EDITORS COMMENTS
This beautiful and evocative photograph captures the enchanting beauty of Papaver Rhoeas, commonly known as the Corn Poppy or Field Poppy, taken in the late 19th century. The image, sourced from Mary Evans Picture Library, transports us back in time to a simpler era when fields were adorned with a riot of colors from wildflowers, including this iconic poppy. The Corn Poppy, native to Europe, Asia, and North America, is renowned for its vibrant red flowers that bloom in fields, particularly after the plowing of the soil. This photograph, estimated to be taken around 1890, showcases the poppy in its natural habitat, growing amidst the lush greenery of a field. The historical context of this image is further emphasized by the use of a large format camera, which was the standard equipment for professional photographers during that era. The Corn Poppy holds a rich historical significance, as it was used as a symbol of remembrance during World War I. The poppy's ability to thrive in disturbed soil and its bright red color led to the poem "In Flanders Fields" by John McCrae, which immortalized the poppy as a symbol of the fallen soldiers. The poem's last stanza reads, "Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields." This photograph is a testament to the enduring beauty and historical significance of the Corn Poppy. It invites us to reflect on the past and appreciate the simple joys of nature, while also serving as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by those who fought for our freedom.
