EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming print titled "The Parish pets" we are transported back to the 1930s, between the wars. The image captures a delightful scene of Rev Pennington Bickford's study, where his faithful companions, a fox terrier and a parrot, attend all meetings with him. The fox terrier stands proudly by the Reverend's side, its alert eyes reflecting loyalty and devotion. Meanwhile, perched on Rev Bickford's shoulder is an equally attentive parrot, adding a touch of whimsy to this otherwise serious setting. As we delve into the details of this monochrome photograph from Europeana Photography collection, it becomes evident that these animals hold a special place in their owner's heart. Their presence brings joy and lightness to what could be considered mundane clerical duties. This snapshot not only showcases the bond between humans and animals but also highlights the humorous aspect of life within religious communities during that era. It reminds us that even in solemn settings such as Rev Bickford's study, there is room for laughter and playfulness. With its timeless appeal and nostalgic charm, this print serves as a reminder that our furry friends have always been an integral part of our lives – bringing comfort, companionship, and unexpected moments of hilarity along the way.
