EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in a moment of contemplation, Mrs J Evans stands amidst the vibrant green grocery section of North Finchley's newly opened supermarket. This timeless photograph, taken on 9th April 1958 by George Greenwell, showcases not only the bustling atmosphere of a mid-20th century shop but also the tender bond between mother and child. Dressed elegantly in her fur coat, Mrs J Evans cradles her 18-month-old daughter Claire in a pram nearby. The scene is adorned with an abundance of fresh produce – apples, bananas, oranges – neatly arranged in baskets that line the shelves. It is evident that this young woman takes great care in selecting only the finest fruits for her family. As she gazes thoughtfully at the array before her, one can't help but wonder what thoughts occupy Mrs J Evans' mind. Perhaps she contemplates meal ideas or ponders over which fruit will best nourish little Claire's growing body. Or maybe it is simply a momentary pause amidst the chaos of daily life to appreciate beauty and find solace within these walls. This image from Memory Lane Prints transports us back to an era when supermarkets were still novel and shopping was more than just acquiring necessities; it was an experience filled with anticipation and discovery. Through George Greenwell's lens, we are reminded of simpler times when mothers like Mrs J Evans carefully selected each item for their loved ones with unwavering dedication.
