EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of communal feasting and traditional British customs, as a group gathers around the open flame to roast a deer carcass and an ox on spits in Bournemouth, England during the 1950s. The scene exudes a sense of camaraderie and celebration, as the participants engage in the age-old practice of roasting meat over an open fire. The air is filled with the tantalizing aroma of roasting venison and ox, which would have been a prized delicacy for many in post-war Britain. The men in the photograph are seen tending to the spits, turning the meat to ensure even cooking, while others enjoy a drink and engage in conversation. The women and children look on, perhaps eagerly anticipating the meal to come. The open air setting, with the sun beginning to set in the background, adds to the idyllic atmosphere of the scene. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing a time when communal gatherings and traditional cooking methods were an integral part of British culture.
