1931 24th Busy Depicts Normandy Plage Pool Swimming Pourville
EDITORS COMMENTS
Playtime at Pourville: A Vibrant Scene of Leisure and Relaxation at the Grand Hotel on the Normandy Coast, June 1931 This evocative image, titled "Playtime at Pourville: On the Plage of the Grand Hotel," captures the lively atmosphere surrounding the swimming pool of the iconic Grand Hotel in Pourville-sur-Mer, Normandy, France, during the summer month of June in 1931. The photograph, taken by renowned Chinese-French photographer Ho, showcases a bustling scene filled with joy, relaxation, and the simple pleasures of a seaside vacation. The Grand Hotel, an elegant establishment nestled along the picturesque Normandy coastline, has long been a popular destination for tourists seeking respite from their daily routines. The pool area, with its crystal-clear water and inviting blue tiles, serves as the focal point of this scene. Sunbathers lounge on colorful towels, while children play and splash in the water, their laughter echoing through the air. The image, published by Illustrated London News on the 24th of July, 1931, offers a glimpse into the rich history of this coastal town and the memories it has created for generations of visitors. The photograph, now available as a print from Mary Evans Prints Online, invites us to step back in time and experience the charm and allure of a bygone era. As we take in the details of this charming scene, we are transported to a place of leisure and relaxation, where the sound of the waves crashing against the shore and the scent of the salty sea air remind us of the simple joys that come with spending a day at the beach. This photograph is not only a beautiful work of art but also a testament to the enduring appeal of the seaside and the memories it creates for those who visit.
