EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the summer of 1953, capturing a delightful scene at the seaside. The rectangular covered counter-card showcases a reproduction of John Leigh-Pemberton's exquisite painting, depicting people enjoying their leisure time by the coast. As we gaze upon this artwork, our eyes are drawn to the magnificent ships gracefully sailing in the harbor behind them. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring life to this maritime setting. The clear blue sea stretches out before us, inviting us to dip our toes into its refreshing waters. Bunting flutters in the gentle breeze, adding a festive touch to this coastal scene. Intriguingly, amidst all this beauty lies an advertisement for Players Medium Navy Cut Tobacco. However, let us not dwell on its commercial nature but instead focus on the charm and nostalgia that emanates from this image. We can almost hear children's laughter as they paddle in shallow waters while families relax on sandy beaches nearby. The men donning 19th-century costumes add an air of elegance and sophistication to this idyllic yachting scene. This print captures not only a moment frozen in time but also evokes feelings of joy and tranquility associated with summers spent by the sea. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when one could escape daily routines and immerse themselves in nature's beauty. Nottingham City Photos has truly preserved a precious slice of history through this remarkable image – one that allows us to travel back in time and experience firsthand the allure
