EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating colour print showcases the iconic Grand and Metropole Hotels in Folkestone, captured by an English photographer of the 20th century. The image is part of a private collection, offering a glimpse into the early 20th-century postcard charm of this popular holiday destination. The bustling bandstand stands proudly amidst the well-manicured lawns, as crowds gather to enjoy their Edwardian summer holidays. The magnificent facades of both hotels provide a stunning backdrop to this lively scene, exuding grandeur and elegance. The atmosphere is electric with excitement as people sit and relax on the green grass, soaking up the sun's rays. This photograph beautifully captures the essence of a vacation resort during its heyday, where families and friends come together to create lasting memories. With its picturesque surroundings and inviting ambiance, it's no wonder that Folkestone became synonymous with leisurely vacations. The postcard aesthetic adds nostalgia to this already charming image, transporting us back in time when handwritten messages were sent across continents. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece of history through their fine art collection. It serves as a reminder of how our ancestors enjoyed their holydays or vacations in such idyllic settings – embracing nature's beauty while relishing precious moments spent with loved ones.
