EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph captured by the talented William Vanderson, we are transported back to a sunny summer day on the 18th of July in 1950. The image showcases an endearing moment as identical twins Shirley and June Sully take it upon themselves to give Peter Fry his very first skating lesson at Victoria Park in East London. The composition beautifully captures the essence of innocence and camaraderie. We see Peter, a young boy with an eager expression on his face, standing slightly off-balance on his roller skates while Shirley and June stand behind him, offering support and guidance. Their synchronized movements suggest a strong bond between siblings, united in their determination to teach Peter how to glide effortlessly across the pavement. The choice of black and white format adds a timeless quality to the image, emphasizing its nostalgic appeal. The landscape setting provides a picturesque backdrop for this heartwarming scene, with lush greenery framing the trio as they embark on this joyful adventure together. William Vanderson's skillful eye has not only frozen this precious moment in time but also immortalized it through his lens. This print from Fine Art Storehouse serves as a testament to the power of friendship, family bonds, and shared experiences that transcend generations.
