Child Children Girl Pool Seaside Swim Swimmers Alfieri Nineteen Twenties Piggyback Shallows
EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in the nostalgic black and white tones of the early 20th century, this print titled 'Young holiday makers enjoy a pick-a-back in the sea at Southend' transports us back to a carefree summer's day on April 6,1920. The image showcases two delightful children, a boy and a girl, frolicking in the shallows of the Southend seaside. With their beaming smiles and infectious laughter, they embody the innocence and joy of youth. The scene depicts an era when simple pleasures were cherished; where swimming in the sea was an exhilarating adventure for these young swimmers. The boy gallantly carries his companion piggyback-style through the gentle waves as they revel in each other's company. Their playful interaction is frozen in time by Alfieri's lens, capturing a moment that encapsulates friendship and youthful exuberance. This monochrome photograph not only serves as a window into history but also evokes feelings of nostalgia for those who long for simpler times spent by the water's edge. As we gaze upon this snapshot from nearly a century ago, we are reminded of how precious moments like these can transcend generations. Alfieri's skillful composition invites us to join these young holidaymakers on their seaside escapade - inviting us to relish in their innocent delight amidst Europeana Photography’s vast collection.
