EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming photograph from circa 1909, a grandfather, identified as Thackeray Lance, is seen enjoying a leisurely day at the seaside with his grandchildren. The grandfather, with a full beard and sideburns, sits on a bench, watching as the children, a girl and a boy, eagerly encourage him to join them in their race towards the sea. However, Thackeray shows no signs of rushing, contentedly pondering the expanse of sand and water before him. The children, dressed in summer clothing, hold spades in their hands, ready to build sandcastles, while their sunhats sit at their feet. The grandfather, with a sunhat shading his face, seems to be relishing the moment, dragging out the experience as long as possible. This image captures the intergenerational bond between the grandfather and his grandchildren, as well as the laid-back atmosphere of a traditional English coastal holiday. The scene is further enhanced by the presence of beach huts in the background, adding to the sense of nostalgia and history. Thackeray's passive resistance to the children's urging to hurry up creates a humorous moment, highlighting the patience and affection of the grandfather towards his grandchildren. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of simpler times and the joy of making memories with family.
