EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting world of Bournville in 1892. Nestled near Birmingham, this idyllic village was meticulously built by Cadburys, the renowned chocolate manufacturers, for their cherished employees. Founded by the visionary Quaker businessman John Cadbury, this utopian settlement embodied a harmonious blend of nature and architecture. In this particular snapshot, we are transported to a scene that exudes joy and innocence. A group of young girls frolics in what seems like an ethereal playground surrounded by lush greenery. Their laughter echoes through the air as they revel in their carefree moments amidst nature's embrace. But what truly captivates our attention is the magnificent waterfall cascading gracefully nearby. Its crystal-clear waters glisten under the sunlight, inviting these playful souls to immerse themselves in its refreshing depths. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to Cadbury's commitment to providing their employees with more than just work; it showcases their dedication towards creating spaces for recreation and rejuvenation. As we gaze upon this image from "Cocoa: All About It" we can't help but appreciate how Bournville became an embodiment of dreams turned into reality – where chocolate manufacturing met community-building and where natural beauty intertwined seamlessly with human ingenuity.
