EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, taken by Reinhold Thiele around 1905, we are transported to a different era in England's urban streets. The image captures a group of young boys engaged in an age-old tradition known as "Bound Beating". Standing proudly in Tokerhouse yard, these male youths are seen energetically beating the boundaries of their parish. The scene is filled with youthful exuberance as the boys enthusiastically participate in this long-standing custom. Their animated expressions and determined postures reveal the importance they place on upholding this ancient ritual. It is evident that they understand the significance of marking their territory and maintaining a sense of community within their parish. Thiele's choice to present this print in black and white adds a timeless quality to the image. The absence of color allows us to focus solely on the subjects themselves, emphasizing their actions and emotions without any distractions. As we observe this snapshot from history, we can't help but reflect on how traditions shape our identities and connect us to our past. Through Thiele's lens, we witness not only a moment frozen in time but also an enduring testament to human customs that have stood the test of time. This remarkable photograph serves as a reminder that even amidst societal changes and progressions, there will always be elements that tie us back to our roots - reminding us who we are and where we come from.
