EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1900, showcases the picturesque scene of Margate Sands on the East Coast of England. The sandy beach is dotted with people enjoying a sunny day by the sea. In the foreground, a group of children playfully paddle in the shallow waters, their laughter echoing through the air. The town of Margate, with its colorful buildings and distinctive clock tower, can be seen in the background. The serene atmosphere is further accentuated by the tranquil waters, which gently lap against the shore. The use of a lantern slide adds an intriguing element to the image, suggesting that this photograph was once projected onto a screen for an audience to enjoy. This antique photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to a simpler era when life moved at a slower pace and the simple pleasures of a day at the beach were cherished. The Box 145 Boswell Collection, from which this photograph is taken, is a valuable archive of historical images that capture the essence of the British coastline. This photograph, in particular, showcases the beauty and charm of Margate Sands and the joy that can be found in the simple pleasures of a day at the beach.
