EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the vibrant summer of 1950, as captured by a GWR publicity view at Exmouth Promenade in Devon. This enchanting print transports us to an era where seaside holidays were eagerly anticipated and cherished. The Esplanade comes alive with the joyful presence of holidaymakers strolling along the promenade, basking in the glorious July sunshine. In this snapshot of nostalgia, groups of young ladies donning stylish sunglasses gracefully traverse the walkway. Their fashionable attire perfectly complements their carefree spirit, embodying the essence of summertime bliss. As they wander along, laughter and chatter fill the air, creating an atmosphere brimming with youthful energy. The idyllic scene unfolds against a backdrop that showcases nature's beauty intertwined with architectural elegance. On one side lies a meticulously manicured garden, bursting with colorful blooms that add vibrancy to this coastal haven. On the other side stands Morton Crescent—a testament to timeless British architecture—its grandeur harmoniously blending into its surroundings. This image serves as a window into an era when Exmouth was synonymous with unforgettable seaside getaways. It encapsulates not only a moment frozen in time but also evokes feelings of nostalgia for simpler days spent under sunny skies and by tranquil shores. As we gaze upon this treasured piece from STEAM Museum's collection, it invites us to reminisce about our own cherished memories by the sea—an invitation we gladly accept.
