EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the quaint village of Downe in Greater London, circa 1950. The image showcases a moment frozen in time, capturing the essence of everyday life during the mid-20th century. A female worker stands proudly behind the counter of a local shop, her apron neatly tied and sleeves rolled up as she tends to her duties. The charming bakery setting is evident from the assortment of freshly baked bread loaves on display. Each loaf tells a story - crafted with care and expertise, they are ready to nourish both body and soul. This woman's dedication to her craft is palpable; one can almost smell the warm aroma wafting through the air. Downe itself holds historical significance, having been part of Kent until 1965 when it became incorporated into Greater London within the London Borough of Bromley. This snapshot offers a glimpse into an era where small villages like Downe thrived amidst their close-knit communities. Photographer Tomlin skillfully captures this slice-of-life moment without any commercial agenda in mind. Instead, his lens focuses on celebrating ordinary people engaged in honest work that sustains their community. As we gaze upon this evocative photograph print from Memory Lane Prints, we are reminded of simpler times when hard work was valued and cherished by all who passed through these doors.
