EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of leisure and relaxation at the Bournemouth Club in Kingston, Jamaica, West Indies, during the 1930s. The image, taken on Windward Road, showcases a swimming pool that was a popular destination for both locals and expatriates seeking respite from the tropical heat. The pool, surrounded by lush greenery and tall trees, exudes an air of tranquility and serenity. The swimmers, dressed in bathing suits and hats, are seen enjoying a refreshing dip in the crystal-clear water. One swimmer takes a playful dive from the side of the pool, while another slides down the pool's lengthy water chute, adding an element of excitement to the scene. The bathers lounging on the poolside chairs appear to be fully immersed in their leisurely pursuits, with some reading books or engaging in animated conversations. The Bournemouth Club was a prestigious social institution in Kingston during the 1930s, and this photograph offers a glimpse into the lives of the affluent residents and visitors who frequented it. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to experience a moment of nostalgia and wonder at the carefree days of the Caribbean's colonial past.
