EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1930, we witness a momentous occasion as The Duke of Gloucester is warmly welcomed by Councillor H Lazarus, the Mayor of Stepney. This historical snapshot captures the opening ceremony of the Bernard Baron Jewish Settlement in Fairclough Street, London. As the Duke steps onto the scene, his presence commands attention and respect. Dressed impeccably in his regal attire, he exudes an air of dignity and importance. Standing beside him is Councillor Lazarus, representing not only himself but also the entire Stepney community. The image showcases a diverse gathering that reflects the rich tapestry of London's ethnic makeup during that era. Children and scouts eagerly await their turn to meet royalty while proudly displaying their badges and uniforms. Their excitement is palpable as they anticipate shaking hands with such esteemed guests. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of both immigration and integration within society at that time. The Jewish settlement symbolizes a place where individuals found solace amidst new beginnings, seeking refuge from persecution or simply searching for better opportunities. The presence of Jewish people in this picture highlights their significant contributions to British culture and society throughout history. It stands as a testament to religious diversity and tolerance within our communities. Preserved through Memory Lane Prints, this remarkable image allows us to step back into an important chapter in London's past – one filled with hope, unity, and cultural exchange between different backgrounds coming together under one roof.
