EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the year 1895, capturing a lively scene on Southsea Common. The image showcases a multitude of people promenading along the common, their elegant attire contrasting against the simplicity of the landscape. F. J. Mortimer's keen eye for detail is evident as he expertly captures this moment in history. The composition of the photograph draws our attention to various elements within the frame. In the foreground, we see an old-fashioned vehicle, possibly a horse-drawn carriage or early automobile, adding an air of nostalgia to the scene. Further back, a row of tents can be spotted, hinting at some sort of event or gathering taking place on that day. The atmosphere depicted is one filled with joy and leisure; families stroll together while couples engage in animated conversations. It is fascinating to observe how fashion has evolved over time - men donning top hats and waistcoats while women elegantly showcase their long dresses and elaborate hats. F. J. Mortimer's skillful use of photography adds depth and character to this historical snapshot. The absence of color allows us to focus on intricate details such as facial expressions and architectural features without distraction. This print serves as a window into England's past, offering viewers an opportunity to immerse themselves in a bygone era where life unfolded at a slower pace amidst natural beauty.
