EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the picturesque coastal village of La Rocque, Jersey, with this print from June 1925. Taken as part of a GWR publicity campaign, this image transports us to an idyllic summer day in the 1920s. The photograph showcases the charming harbour and slipway of La Rocque on the south-eastern coast of Jersey in the Channel Islands. As low tide reveals its hidden treasures, a collection of small boats gently sway in the calm waters, creating a serene scene that captures the essence of coastal living. The quaint village exudes timeless charm with its traditional architecture and tranquil atmosphere. The sight of these moored boats invites us to imagine leisurely days spent exploring nearby coves or embarking on fishing adventures. It's easy to envision locals going about their daily routines against this stunning backdrop. This snapshot encapsulates an era when travel was slower-paced and simpler; where communities thrived off maritime activities and embraced nature's beauty at every turn. With its vibrant hues and remarkable clarity, this print allows us to relive those cherished moments from nearly a century ago. As we gaze upon this historic gem preserved by STEAM Museum, we are reminded not only of our shared past but also how much has changed over time. Let it inspire you to embark on your own journey through history.
