EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken in April 1929, we are transported back in time to witness a remarkable event aboard the Cunard liner Berengaria. The image captures a group of elegantly dressed guests sitting on a lifeboat during a lively dance held onboard the magnificent vessel, which is docked at Southampton. The purpose of this enchanting gathering was to raise funds for the Southampton Children's Hospital, highlighting both the generosity and compassion of those present. As we observe the scene closely, we can't help but be captivated by the diverse mix of male and female attendees who have come together for this noble cause. The atmosphere seems electric as laughter and conversation fill the air, creating an ambiance that is both joyous and heartwarming. Each individual exudes an aura of elegance and sophistication, their attire reflecting the fashion trends of that era. Through W. G. Phillips' lens, we are granted access to this unique moment frozen in time – a snapshot that not only immortalizes an act of philanthropy but also serves as a reminder of our shared humanity. This stunning print from Fine Art Storehouse allows us to appreciate not only its historical significance but also its artistic value. It transports us back almost a century ago when society rallied together for charitable causes amidst opulent surroundings like those found aboard grand ocean liners such as Berengaria.
