EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Bathers ready to take a dip in the chilly waters of the North Seat at Roker, Sunderland on Christmas morning 1913" we are transported back to a time when brave souls embraced the icy embrace of the North Sea. The image captures a cherished tradition that has stood the test of time. As we gaze upon this snapshot from the early 20th century, we see groups of people gathered along the shore, eagerly awaiting their turn to plunge into the frigid waters. Clad in their swimming costumes and trunks, they exude both excitement and trepidation for what lies ahead. Their towels tightly clutched in hand serve as reminders of warmth and comfort waiting for them after their daring adventure. The scene is filled with an air of camaraderie and shared experience. It speaks volumes about human resilience and our innate ability to find joy even in unconventional circumstances. Despite it being Christmas morning, these bathers have chosen not to conform to traditional celebrations but instead forge their own unique path. This photograph by NCJ encapsulates an era where customs were upheld with unwavering dedication. It serves as a reminder that traditions can evolve over time while still retaining their essence. As we admire this piece from Memory Lane Prints, let us reflect on how our own customs have shaped us throughout history and continue to do so today.
