Raphael Park Lake, Romford, London, England - Two Swans Having a Light Swim, Circa 1904 This charming photograph captures a serene moment at Raphael Park Lake in Romford, Essex, London, England. The tranquil scene is set against the backdrop of a shady, lakeside area, where two swans glide gracefully through the calm waters. The gentle reflection of the sun on the lake's surface creates a peaceful atmosphere, as if time stands still. In the foreground, a mother and her children enjoy the picturesque surroundings from a quaint wooden seat. The mother, dressed in a long, flowing skirt and blouse, holds a parasol to shield herself and her little ones from the sun. A pram or perambulator, filled with belongings, is parked nearby, suggesting a leisurely outing in the park. The history of Raphael Park dates back to the late 1800s when it was designed by Sir James Pennethorne and opened to the public in 1885. The park, which covers over 120 acres, was named after the famous Italian painter Raphael, and features a variety of attractions, including a lake, a boating lake, a bandstand, and a number of gardens. This photograph, taken circa 1904, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to a simpler era when families would spend their days enjoying the beauty of nature and the company of each other. The two swans, seemingly hoping for a bread-based snack from the photographer or the family, add an endearing touch to this idyllic scene.
