EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from c1910 showcases the enchanting city of Nottingham, known for its rich history and legends. The creator of this mesmerizing image remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to the already mythical atmosphere. In the foreground stands a figure that needs no introduction - Robin Hood himself, the legendary English folk hero who roamed Sherwood Forest during the late 12th and early 13th centuries. Dressed in his iconic green attire, Robin Hood is depicted with his trusty bow and arrow, ready to defend justice and challenge authority. The lush forest surrounding him serves as a reminder of his daring escapades and cunning tactics against oppressive rulers. Nottingham's significance as a hub for hosiery, lace, and woollen goods is also highlighted in this image. With a population of approximately 259,900 at that time, it was undoubtedly a bustling center of industry. The vibrant colors bring life to this century-old photograph while capturing the essence of British countryside charm. As we gaze upon this print today, we are transported back in time to witness both reality and mythology intertwine seamlessly within Nottinghamshire's borders. This remarkable piece belongs to "The Counties of England - A Geographical Game: 4th Series" collection by Jaques & Son Ltd. , London. It serves as a testament not only to our fascination with historical figures like Robin Hood but also our enduring connection with nature and folklore throughout generations.
