EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of pure joy and community in the heart of Hamilton, Bermuda during the 1910s. A group of native Bermudians, both men and boys, are seen tucking into freshly cut slices of juicy watermelons under the shade of a grove. The image is a testament to the deep connection between the people of Bermuda and this iconic fruit, which has been a staple in the island's culture for centuries. Watermelons have long been a symbol of summertime in Bermuda, and this image captures the essence of the season. The men and boys, dressed in traditional Bermudian attire, are fully engaged in the simple pleasure of sharing a refreshing treat with one another. Their expressions of delight and contentment are contagious, and it is easy to imagine the sounds of laughter and conversation filling the air. This photograph offers a glimpse into the history and heritage of Bermuda, providing a window into a time when life was simpler and more connected to the natural world. The watermelon grove serves as a reminder of the island's rich agricultural past, and the community gathered around it represents the enduring spirit of Bermudian people. This image is not only a beautiful representation of a moment in time, but also a celebration of the shared experiences and traditions that define Bermudian culture.
