EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the charming seaside scene of Malo-les-Bains beach in Dunkirk, France, circa 1910s. This photograph from The Roseries Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library transports us to an era of simple pleasures and carefree holidays. The crystal-clear waters of the North Sea gently lap against the golden sands as locals and visitors alike engage in a variety of leisurely activities. Children delight in the simple joy of paddling in the shallow waters, their laughter echoing through the air as they splash each other playfully. Adults join in on the fun, taking turns to paddle in the waves, their faces reflecting the pure bliss of a day spent by the sea. In the background, a fleet of sailing boats gracefully cuts through the water, their sails billowing in the breeze. The sight of these boats adds to the idyllic atmosphere, reminding us of the rich maritime history of Dunkirk. Malo-les-Bains beach was a popular destination for holidaymakers during the early 1900s, and this photograph captures the essence of a bygone era. The scene is a testament to the enduring appeal of the seaside, where the simple pleasures of paddling in the waves, building sandcastles, and watching the sunset continue to bring joy to people of all ages. This photograph is not only a beautiful reminder of the past but also a celebration of the timeless allure of the sea and the simple pleasures of a day spent at the beach.
