EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the South staircase of the iconic De La Warr Pavilion in Bexhill on Sea, East Sussex. Constructed in 1935, this architectural masterpiece was a pioneering example of the International style in Britain. The vision for this project came from Herbrand Sackville, the progressive 9th Earl De La Warr who served as Mayor of Bexhill at that time. Designed by architects Eric Mendelsohn and Serge Chermayeff, this public amenity boasted an impressive array of facilities including a grand 1500-seater entertainment hall, a restaurant, a reading room, and a lounge. The spiral staircase depicted in this image is an exquisite testament to their innovative design approach. The photograph captures the essence of this historic building with its vibrant colors and impeccable interior decoration. It transports us back to the glamourous era of the 1930s when visitors would ascend these stairs to enjoy cultural events and social gatherings within these hallowed walls. Today, the De La Warr Pavilion stands as an enduring symbol of British architecture and cultural heritage. Its significance lies not only in its stunning design but also in its role as a landmark venue that continues to host diverse artistic performances and exhibitions. This print serves as both a nostalgic reminder of our past and an inspiration for future generations appreciating artistry fused with functionality.
