EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, taken by the esteemed Illustrated London News Ltd in 1928, captures the essence of Durban, South Africa, affectionately known as Port Natal, as a paradise for bathers. The image is filled with holiday-makers, relishing in the beauty and joy of the beach and an open-air swimming pool. The sun-drenched scene is a testament to the enduring allure of the coastline, which has long drawn visitors from around the world. In the foreground, the golden sands of the beach stretch out, dotted with colorful bathing suits and beachgoers engaged in various activities. The crystal-clear waters of the Indian Ocean gently lap against the shore, inviting swimmers to take a refreshing dip. Further back, an open-air swimming pool beckons, its cool blue waters a welcome respite from the heat of the day. The pool, complete with a diving board and a slide, adds an element of excitement and adventure to the idyllic setting. Children can be seen gleefully sliding down the chute into the pool, while adults lounge on the poolside, soaking up the sun and the vibrant atmosphere. The photograph also showcases the diverse population of Durban, with people of various races and ethnicities coming together to enjoy the day at the beach. The scene is one of unity and joy, a fitting representation of the spirit of this beautiful coastal city. Overall, this image is a captivating snapshot of a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the rich history and charm of Durban, South Africa, as a beloved destination for bathers and holiday-makers alike.
