EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of Ventnor Seafront on the Isle of Wight, circa 1890. The Esplanade Hotel, a grand Victorian structure, proudly stands at the edge of the beach, its elegant facade a testament to the elegance of the era. The sandy shore is dotted with colorful bathing huts, each one a sanctuary for holidaymakers seeking respite from the sun and sea. But the true charm of this scene lies in the horse-drawn bathing wagons and carts that line the beach. These vintage vehicles, pulled by sturdy horses, were a common sight during the Victorian and Edwardian eras when Ventnor was a popular seaside resort. They offered a convenient and fashionable way for visitors to access the water, allowing them to maintain their modesty while enjoying the benefits of a dip in the sea. The horses, with their muscular forms and determined expressions, seem to embody the spirit of the age, when travel was an adventure and the simple pleasures of a day at the seaside were cherished. The water's edge is a hive of activity, with children playing in the shallows, couples strolling along the shore, and bathers being helped in and out of the wagons by attendants. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the history of Ventnor as a holiday destination, a time when the seafront was a bustling hub of activity and the Esplanade Hotel was a symbol of luxury and sophistication. It invites us to imagine the stories of the people who once enjoyed this beautiful beach, and to appreciate the enduring allure of the seaside.
