EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black and white square print, taken by the talented photographer Nocella in 1958, we are transported back to a time when train travel was at its peak. The image captures the essence of a station closed down, as two young travellers stand on the platform gazing curiously at an idle train. With their backs turned towards us, we can only imagine what thoughts are running through their minds as they contemplate where this train could have taken them. The photo exudes a sense of nostalgia and adventure, reminding us of a bygone era when rail transport was not just a means of getting from point A to point B but an experience in itself. The composition beautifully frames the scene with the railway tracks stretching into the distance, symbolizing endless possibilities and unknown destinations. The male and female figures add depth to the photograph, representing youthful curiosity and wanderlust. Their presence emphasizes that even though this station may be closed for now, it doesn't dampen their spirits or diminish their desire for exploration. Nocella's masterful capture transports us back to North America during this significant period in history when railways were vital arteries connecting cities and communities across vast landscapes. This print is not just a piece of art; it is also a window into our collective past—a reminder of simpler times filled with dreams waiting to be fulfilled aboard trains that could take you anywhere your heart desired.
