EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we see Little Susan Bond, a curious four-year-old girl, captivated by the wooden figurehead of the Saint George. This magnificent ship was built in 1887 but tragically wrecked off Peel, Isle of Man in 1889. It is truly a testament to the resilience of both man and nature that all 23 crew members were saved by the heroic efforts of the Peel lifeboat The John Monk. Taken on May 7th, 1954 as part of Bela Zola's "Life in Mirror" series, this image beautifully captures a moment frozen in time. Little Susan stands before this historic landmark wearing an adorable coat that perfectly complements her innocence and wonderment. The scene itself is nothing short of picturesque - set against the backdrop of a scenic seaside town. The statue seems to come alive through Susan's eyes as she gazes up at its intricate details with awe-struck admiration. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder not only of our rich maritime history but also highlights the importance of bravery and compassion during times of crisis. As we reflect upon this snapshot from the past, it prompts us to appreciate how far we have come while cherishing those who came before us.
