EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in the nostalgic charm of the 1950s, this print by Bela Zola transports us to a simpler time along the shores of Sunderland, Tyne and Wear. On a sunny day, we witness a delightful scene of children eagerly picking whelks amidst the rugged beauty of the coastal rocks. The innocence and joy radiating from their faces is palpable as they explore nature's bounty with curious hands. The sandy beach stretches out before them, inviting endless adventures while seagulls soar overhead, adding an extra touch of seaside magic. A loyal companion stands faithfully beside them—a beloved dog who shares in their excitement and adds an element of playfulness to the scene. County Durham's rich maritime heritage comes alive through this snapshot in time. Whelks, a popular seafood delicacy found abundantly along these shores, were once harvested by local communities for sustenance and trade. This image serves as a testament to both human resilience and our deep connection with nature. Bela Zola skillfully captures not only the picturesque landscape but also evokes emotions that transcend time itself. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of history preserved on paper, we are reminded of carefree childhood days spent exploring nature's wonders—moments that remain etched forever in our hearts.
