Campers Camping Caravan Caravanning Caravans Carts Drawn Gipsy Gypsy Tent Tents
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to 1914 and experience the early days of caravanning, a popular pastime for intrepid holidaymakers seeking adventure and the great outdoors. This photograph from Mary Evans Prints Online showcases a variety of camp carts, both horse-drawn and motorized, gathered together in a scenic campsite. The image transports us to an era when the simple pleasures of nature and the freedom of the open road were the main attractions. The horse-drawn carts, reminiscent of gypsy wagons, are adorned with colorful fabrics and intricate designs, reflecting the individuality and creativity of their owners. In contrast, the motorized caravans, a new innovation at the time, represent the modern and progressive spirit of the age. Among the campers, a woman can be seen outside her tent, kneading dough and preparing bread over an open fire. Her determination to maintain the comforts of home, even in the wilderness, adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to the scene. The photograph captures the essence of early caravanning, a time when the joy of exploration and the simple pleasures of camping brought people together in a shared love of the great outdoors.
