EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from The Northcliffe Collection takes us back to the charming coastal town of Folkestone in Kent during the summer of 1937. Titled "The Stade, Folkestone, 1937" it offers a nostalgic glimpse into the old fishing quarter that once thrived along these shores. As we peer into this historic snapshot, we are transported to an era where life moved at a slower pace. The image captures the essence of a bygone time when fishermen would gather on this bustling quay, their weathered faces reflecting years spent battling the unpredictable sea. Worn-out boats line the harbor as seagulls soar above, creating an atmosphere filled with both tranquility and anticipation. The photograph's monochromatic tones add depth and character to its composition, emphasizing every intricate detail etched within its frame. It serves as a visual portal through which we can explore not only Folkestone's past but also England's rich maritime heritage. In this evocative scene, one can almost taste the salty air and feel the warmth of sun-kissed cobblestones underfoot. It is a testament to simpler times when seaside towns like Folkestone were cherished for their idyllic charm and close-knit communities. "The Stade, Folkestone, 1937" invites us to reflect upon our own connection with history while reminding us of how much has changed over decades gone by. This remarkable piece serves as more than just an image;
