EDITORS COMMENTS
In this nostalgic print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the 1980s in Liverpool, England. The image captures a poignant moment of childhood during the festive season as a little girl reluctantly poses with Santa Claus in his grotto at Lewis's department store on November 25th, 1986. With her serious expression and sad eyes, it is evident that this young girl was none too pleased about being forced into this traditional Christmas custom. Her fear of Father Christmas is palpable, creating an emotional connection between the viewer and the subject. Perhaps she had heard stories or seen movies that portrayed Santa as someone to be wary of. The photographer skillfully captured this genuine reaction, freezing it in time for us to reflect upon decades later. This photograph serves as a reminder of how our childhood experiences shape our perception of customs and traditions. As we delve into the past through images like these, we gain insight into not only individual memories but also cultural practices prevalent during that era. It transports us back to a simpler time when department stores were adorned with enchanting displays and children eagerly anticipated their presents from Santa Claus. This evocative print encapsulates both joyous anticipation and apprehension associated with Christmas celebrations in Liverpool during the 1980s – a timeless piece capturing an unforgettable moment in history.
