EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming photograph captures the spirit of a mother and her young daughter from Grimsby, Lincolnshire, during the 1930s. Dressed in their Sunday best, the mother dons a fur coat and leather gloves, while her daughter is adorned in a frilly dress and matching hat. The scene takes place in a studio, likely on Freeman Street, where they have come to have their portrait taken as a cherished keepsake. The unusual props in the photograph add an intriguing element to the social scene. Instead of the typical chairs or benches, the pair sits on box-shaped seats, adding a playful and whimsical touch to the image. The mother's hand gently rests on her daughter's shoulder, conveying a sense of warmth and love. The year is 1935, a time when the working class of Grimsby continued to face economic challenges. Yet, despite these hardships, families made time for special moments and cherished memories. The photograph serves as a reminder of the importance of family, love, and the simple pleasures of life during an era of great change. This image is a beautiful snapshot of a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the lives of ordinary people in a small coastal town in England during the 1930s. It is a poignant reminder of the human connection that transcends time and circumstance.
