EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the idyllic summer of 1925, where Portelet Beach in Jersey was a haven for holidaymakers seeking sun, sand, and serenity. This print captures the essence of that era, showcasing the breathtaking beauty of this Channel Island gem. As we gaze upon this image taken from the sandy shores, our eyes are drawn to Portlet Tower standing tall on its tidal island - L ile au Guerdain. A magnificent Martello tower built during the Napoleonic wars in 1808, it serves as a reminder of Jersey's rich history and fortifications. The golden sunlight bathes everything in its warm glow as families and friends leisurely stroll along the beach. Laughter fills the air as children playfully chase seagulls while adults relish in carefree conversations. The sound of crashing waves against rugged cliffs creates a soothing symphony that lulls all worries away. Portelet Bay stretches out before us like an inviting oasis, tempting us to dip our toes into its crystal-clear waters or bask lazily under colorful umbrellas dotting the shoreline. It is a scene straight out of a postcard – picturesque and timeless. This remarkable photograph transports us back to an era when life moved at a slower pace; where simple pleasures were cherished amidst stunning natural landscapes. It encapsulates not just a moment frozen in time but also evokes feelings of nostalgia for those who long for simpler days spent by the sea.
