EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from The Northcliffe Collection takes us back to the nostalgic era of the 1950s in Scotland. With an aerial view of Portobello, it beautifully captures a moment frozen in time. The image showcases various elements that defined this seaside town during that period. In the foreground, we are drawn to the magnificent swimming pool, glistening under the sun's rays. Its inviting waters beckon visitors seeking respite from summer heatwaves. Adjacent to it is a bustling promenade where people stroll leisurely, enjoying ice creams and taking in breathtaking views of the coastline. Further along, our eyes are captivated by a vibrant funfair with its colorful rides and lively atmosphere. Laughter fills the air as families create cherished memories amidst thrilling adventures on carousels and roller coasters. Amidst all these recreational delights stands an imposing power station, symbolizing progress and modernity within this picturesque setting. It serves as a reminder of how industry coexists harmoniously with nature's beauty. This evocative photograph not only transports us back to simpler times but also highlights how Portobello thrived as a popular destination for locals and tourists alike. It encapsulates an era when swimming pools were gathering spots for communities, power stations represented technological advancements, and seaside towns like Portobello held endless charm. As we gaze upon this remarkable snapshot from history, we can't help but feel a sense of awe at witnessing such timeless scenes unfold before our eyes once again
