EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to a serene summer day in Battersea Park, London, on the 7th of August 1963. The image captures the essence of carefree childhood as two young boys indulge in one of their favorite pastimes - fishing. With their fishing rods poised over the water's edge, they patiently await their next catch. In this idyllic scene, it is evident that time stands still for these boys. Surrounded by tranquility and nature's beauty, they find solace in angling. The keep net belonging to them lies nearby, ready to hold any fish they manage to reel in. As we gaze upon this snapshot from the past, we can't help but feel a sense of contemplation emanating from these young anglers. Perhaps boredom has driven them here seeking adventure or simply an escape from daily routines. Regardless of their motivations, there is something reflective about their expressions – lost in thought amidst the peaceful surroundings. This photograph not only transports us back to a different era but also encapsulates outdoor leisure activities that were cherished during those times. It serves as a reminder of simpler days when children found joy and contentment through simple pleasures like fishing. Ron Burton skillfully captured this moment with his lens, immortalizing it for generations to come. This memory evokes nostalgia for an England long gone yet forever preserved within photographs like this one - snapshots frozen in time on Memory Lane Prints.
