EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph captured by H. F. Davis, we are transported back to a joyous Gala Day on the 22nd of May in 1926 at the New Thames resort in Hampton Court, Middlesex, England. The image showcases a group of bathers adorned in extravagant fancy costumes, adding an air of whimsy and charm to the scene. The landscape format allows us to fully appreciate the picturesque surroundings that serve as the backdrop for this lively gathering. As we take a closer look at each individual, it becomes evident that these women have embraced their creative freedom with enthusiasm and flair. Their outfits range from elegant gowns reminiscent of bygone eras to playful ensembles inspired by characters from literature or mythology. The photo's monochromatic aesthetic adds a timeless quality to the image, allowing us to imagine ourselves stepping into this momentous occasion almost a century ago. It is fascinating how even without color, every detail seems meticulously preserved - from delicate lace trims on dresses to intricate headpieces adorning their heads. H. F Davis has skillfully captured not just an event but also an atmosphere filled with mirth and revelry. This print serves as both a historical artifact and an artistic masterpiece that transports viewers back in time while evoking feelings of nostalgia and curiosity about those who attended this remarkable gala day at New Thames resort all those years ago.
