EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the timeless beauty of Mount Lavinia Hotel in Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) during the 1920s. Located on Hotel Road in Mount Lavinia, the grand colonial-style building stands proudly against the backdrop of the Indian Ocean. The palm trees lining the coast add a tropical touch to the scene, their fronds swaying gently in the breeze. The Mount Lavinia Hotel, a popular destination for British travelers during the colonial era, is nestled between the rocks and the seashore. The waves crash against the shore, creating a soothing symphony of sound that adds to the serene atmosphere. The hotel's whitewashed walls and red-tiled roof stand out against the blue-grey sea, while the rocks jutting out into the water provide a natural barrier against the strong currents. The 1920s, also known as the Jazz Age or the Roaring Twenties, were a time of great cultural and social change. This photograph captures the essence of the era, with its elegant architecture, tropical setting, and sense of leisure and relaxation. The Mount Lavinia Hotel, with its colonial charm and stunning location, was the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and indulge in the pleasures of the British Indian Empire. This photograph is a reminder of a bygone era, a time when travel was an adventure and the world seemed a little smaller. It invites us to imagine the stories of the people who once walked these shores, and the memories they created during their stay at the Mount Lavinia Hotel.
