EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "A boy reading a book by a bridge crossing the River Wey, in Guildford, Surrey. April 1954" we are transported back to a simpler time. The image captures the essence of the 1950s as we witness a young boy engrossed in his book while perched on his bicycle near a picturesque bridge. The scene is set against the breathtaking backdrop of Guildford's serene landscape, with the tranquil River Wey flowing gently beneath the arches. The boy's relaxed posture suggests that he has found solace and escape within the pages of his chosen literary adventure. April's soft sunlight casts gentle shadows across this idyllic setting, enhancing its timeless charm. It is evident that David McLelland Snr skillfully captured not only an ordinary moment but also an extraordinary sense of peace and tranquility. This photograph serves as a reminder of simpler times when children would find joy in exploring nature and losing themselves in books instead of being consumed by digital distractions. It invites us to reflect upon our own childhood memories or perhaps inspires us to create similar moments for ourselves or our loved ones today. As we gaze at this nostalgic snapshot frozen in time, it evokes feelings of nostalgia and appreciation for life's simple pleasures – reminding us that sometimes all we need is a good book, a peaceful spot by the river, and some uninterrupted moments to truly unwind and connect with ourselves.
