EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Commuters waiting on the platform" we are transported back to the bustling English Railways of the 1950s. Bernard Alfieri skillfully captures a moment frozen in time, where a group of commuters eagerly await their train's arrival. The scene is steeped in nostalgia, evoking a sense of anticipation and adventure that was inherent to travel during this era. The platform is filled with an eclectic mix of individuals from all walks of life, each lost in their own thoughts or engaged in conversation with fellow passengers. The steam engines billow thick clouds into the air, adding an element of romance and mystery to the atmosphere. It is as if time stands still within this snapshot; one can almost hear the rhythmic chugging and feel the vibrations beneath their feet. Alfieri's composition highlights not only the human aspect but also showcases these magnificent machines that were once at the heart of transportation. The trains themselves become characters within this visual narrative, symbols of progress and connection between distant places. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of how rail travel has shaped our collective memory and transformed societies over time. It invites us to reflect on our own experiences with transport while igniting curiosity about those who came before us – those who embarked on journeys similar yet distinct from our own. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece by Bernard Alfieri, we find ourselves captivated by its timeless charm and compelled to delve deeper into history's rich tapestry woven through railways, transport systems
