EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a cherished moment in time at the seaside resort of Southwold, Suffolk, in the early 1910s. Two men, both named Smith, are seen in the foreground, each holding the hand of a young girl, creating a heartwarming scene of intergenerational connection. The older man on the left, dressed in rolled trousers and a straw hat, gazes out at the sea with a contented expression. His companion, also in rolled trousers and a cap, keeps a watchful eye on the little girls, both of whom are barefoot and wearing simple summer dresses. In the background, a fisherman named Rogers can be seen casting his net into the sea, adding to the bustling atmosphere of the coastal scene. The pier stretches out into the distance, inviting visitors to enjoy the sunshine and the salty breeze. A bathing hut on wheels is visible on the sand, adding to the sense of holiday fun and adventure. This photograph, taken in the Edwardian era, captures the essence of a simpler time, when families would travel to the coast for a much-needed break from their daily routines. The sunny day, the sound of the waves crashing on the shore, and the laughter of children at play all come together to create a timeless memory that continues to resonate with us today.
