EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph captures a moment of leisurely indulgence at the Hullam Szallo Hotel in Keszthely, Hungary, during the 1930s. The Belle of the Beach, a rather rotund and wealthy woman, is promenading along the Strand (beach) of Lake Balaton with her beloved Scottie dog in tow. Dressed in her finest bathing suit and swimwear, she is the epitome of elegance and opulence, even with her playful pet providing an unexpected contrast. As she strolls along the shoreline, her bellboy attendant from the Hullam Szallo Hotel offers her a parasol to shield her from the sun's rays. The scene is filled with a sense of whimsy and amusement, as other holidaymakers look on with a moderately risible expression. The grandeur of the Hullam Szallo Hotel, with its Hungarina-style architecture, can be seen in the background, adding to the overall charm of the image. This photograph is a testament to the golden age of European holidays, where luxury and relaxation were the order of the day. The Belle of the Beach, with her portly figure and cherished Scottie dog, embodies the spirit of carefree enjoyment that defined the era. The Lake Balaton, with its crystal-clear waters and picturesque surroundings, serves as the perfect backdrop for this delightful moment in time.
