EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a bygone era in Folkestone, Kent during the late 19th to early 20th century. The Lees promenade is bustling with people, all eagerly taking in the fresh sea air and enjoying their leisurely strolls along the picturesque coastline. The vibrant colors bring to life this Edwardian seaside resort town, known for its stunning landscapes and charming Victorian architecture. Families and friends can be seen dotting the promenade, relishing their summer holidays on England's south coast. The postcard-like quality of this image transports us back in time, evoking a sense of nostalgia for an era when travel was slower-paced and simpler. It serves as a reminder of how much has changed over the years while also highlighting timeless aspects such as holiday traditions and communal enjoyment of nature's beauty. Although we may not know who captured this moment or why it was taken, one thing is certain: it encapsulates an idyllic scene that continues to attract tourists today. This photograph stands as a testament to Folkestone's enduring appeal as a holiday destination throughout different centuries.
