EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph, hailing from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back in time to the Victorian era in Tynemouth, England. The image showcases a group of brave lifeboatmen, dressed in their traditional attire, gathered around a lantern as they prepare for a potential rescue mission on the shores of the North Sea. The setting sun casts a warm glow over the old, wooden lifeboats, their timber frames worn and weathered from years of service. The men, with their sturdy boots and heavy coats, embody the resilience and determination of the lifeboatmen who risked their lives to save others in the treacherous waters of the Tyne and Wear. The Victorian period, marked by its ornate details and elegant designs, is beautifully captured in this photograph through the men's uniforms and the intricate lantern, which adds a sense of nostalgia and charm to the scene. The Edwardian era, which followed the Victorian period, is also represented by the men's hats, featuring the distinctive upturned brims. This photograph is a testament to the heroism and selflessness of the lifeboatmen during the Victorian and Edwardian eras, who dedicated their lives to ensuring the safety of their communities along the Northumberland coast. It is a poignant reminder of the rich history and tradition that continues to shape the identity of Tynemouth and its people.
