EDITORS COMMENTS
In this nostalgic print captured in May 1981, we are transported back to a wet Bank Holiday at Blackheath, London. The gloomy weather seems to have cast a spell on the fun fair, as customers are noticeably absent from the scene. Amongst the deserted rides and empty stalls, a group of donkeys patiently await their turn to bring joy to children's faces. The donkeys' expressions seem reflective of the somber atmosphere surrounding them. Their droopy eyes and downcast ears reveal their disappointment at being left idle on what should have been a bustling day of laughter and excitement. These gentle creatures, known for their ability to brighten up any occasion with their playful nature, now stand still in anticipation. This snapshot not only captures a moment frozen in time but also evokes memories of childhood adventures and carefree days spent exploring inner boroughs like Blackheath. It serves as a reminder that even amidst rain-soaked streets and dampened spirits, there is always an opportunity for resilience and hope. As we gaze upon this poignant image from Mirrorpix's collection on Memory Lane Prints, it transports us back to an era when simple pleasures were cherished above all else – where even sad-eyed donkeys could symbolize resilience in the face of adversity.
