EDITORS COMMENTS
Derby Day at Epsom, a timeless celebration of tradition and elegance. In this print from June 3rd, 1959, we are transported back to the vibrant atmosphere of the mid-20th century. The iconic pearly Kings and Queens grace the scene with their distinctive attire, adding a touch of charm and character to the event. Amidst the excitement, we catch a glimpse of Mrs Fumiko Takaoa from Japan capturing this unique moment through her lens. Her fascination with these English traditions is evident as she focuses on the pearlies in all their splendor. The fashion choices showcased in this photograph reflect both British heritage and international influences. From dapper suits adorned with pearl buttons to elegant kimonos worn by Mrs Takaoa herself, it is a delightful fusion of cultures that adds an extra layer of intrigue to Derby Day. As horses thunder down Epsom Downs in pursuit of victory, spectators revel in this thrilling sport that has captivated generations. The hats donned by attendees add an air of sophistication while paying homage to classic derby style. This print captures not only a specific moment but also encapsulates an era defined by its love for horseracing and adherence to traditional customs. It serves as a nostalgic reminder that some things remain unchanged even amidst the passage of time.
