Coming Doone Lorna Riverbank Shortly Stream
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment shortly after Lorna Doone and her beloved met by the riverbank in the early 1930s. The serene setting of the streamside scene is reminiscent of the idyllic landscape of Exmoor, where R.D. Blackmore's classic novel "Lorna Doone" is set. The young woman, dressed in a simple yet elegant dress, is making her way towards the man, who stands with a gentle expression on his face, gazing at her approach. The couple's connection is palpable, as if the river itself is carrying them towards each other. The photograph, taken circa 1934, is a testament to the enduring power of love and the beauty of the natural world. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to witness a fleeting moment in history and to imagine the story that unfolds beyond the frame." "The photograph, which is part of the extensive collection of historical images available at Mary Evans Prints Online, is not to be confused with any commercial prints or reproductions of the novel's cover art. It is a unique and valuable document of the past, offering a glimpse into the lives of the characters and the world of "Lorna Doone" that is not often seen. The photograph's timeless quality and emotional resonance make it a must-have for any collector of historical images, literary memorabilia, or simply for those who appreciate the beauty of love and the natural world.
