EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the enchanting coastal town of Saltcoats on the Ayrshire coast in Scotland, circa 1935. The image captures a unique outdoor activity that was popular during that era - a game of draughts played by skillful individuals using hooked rods to move the pieces on a beautifully tiled draughtboard. The promenade at Saltcoats provides an idyllic backdrop for this intriguing scene, with its stunning views of the sea and vibrant atmosphere. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, we can almost feel the salty breeze brushing against our skin and hear the joyful chatter of spectators mingling with crashing waves. The players' intense focus is evident as they strategize their next moves, showcasing both their dedication to mastering this timeless game and their commitment to enjoying leisurely pursuits amidst nature's embrace. Their hooked rods add an element of novelty and intrigue, reminding us that innovation can be found even in traditional pastimes. Preserved through time by FPG/Archive Photos/Getty Images, this remarkable photograph invites us to reflect on simpler times when people sought entertainment outdoors rather than being consumed by modern technology. It serves as a reminder that there is beauty in simplicity and joy in connecting with others through shared activities. As we admire this piece from Fine Art Storehouse's collection, let it transport us back to an era where life moved at a slower pace – where friends gathered along promenades for friendly competition under open skies.
