A Very British Picnic
by Various Artists
Vintage photographs celebrating the quintessential British picnic: ofen cold,
ofen chaotic, always fun.
This nostalgic, playful collection of images taken in the last century capture the
wonderfully defant spirit of those that brave the weather to picnic in the
British Isles. Whether tucking into crisp sandwiches in a feld of cows, sharing
a thermos fask on the edge of a windy cliff, or having a cheeky cuddle under
a tree, the people in these pictures represent community, friendship and
optimism.
So don’t forget: if your car breaks down, get out the tartan blanket, sit on the
roadside and enjoy the simple, honest fun of time spent in good company
while eating white bread and drinking mildly warm tea.
