The scene is set in the cozy common room, where the warm glow of the lamp illuminates the faces of the boys as they intently focus on their games of dominoes and chess. The air is filled with the sound of clacking dominoes and the quiet concentration of the chess players. The boys, dressed in casual attire and with mop-top hairstyles typical of the era, lean forward in their seats, fully engaged in their games. Their expressions range from intense focus to lighthearted banter, reflecting the diverse personalities and moods of the group. The photograph captures a moment in time, a snapshot of history, that speaks to the universal language of games and the importance of community and connection.
