EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time and immerse yourself in the nostalgic charm of this early 20th century photograph capturing the picturesque scene of The Beach at High Water in Ostend, Belgium. Dating back to approximately 1890-1900, this historical image showcases the popular seaside destination during a time when swimming in the open sea was a daring and invigorating experience. The vibrant, coloured print, produced using the photochrom process, beautifully highlights the natural beauty of the Belgian coastline. The vast expanse of the North Sea meets the golden sands, creating a stunning contrast between the tranquil beach and the powerful, rolling waves. Swimmers of all ages can be seen bravely venturing into the water, their silhouettes adding a sense of movement and energy to the scene. The women, dressed in their elegant bathing costumes, wade in carefully, while the men take the plunge with more enthusiasm. This nineteenth-century view of Ostend Beach invites us to reflect on the simple pleasures of a bygone era. The absence of modern amenities and the raw, untouched beauty of the natural environment evoke a sense of longing for a time when life moved at a slower pace. As you gaze at this photograph, allow yourself to be transported back to a time when the simple joy of a day at the beach was a cherished memory for many. The Beach at High Water in Ostend, Belgium, remains a testament to the enduring allure of the sea and the timeless appeal of a day spent by the water.
