EDITORS COMMENTS
For Remembrance: A Family Gathered (1928) by Alfred Leete, is a poignant and heartwarming illustration of a large family posing for a photograph. The scene is set in a spacious living room, filled with natural light filtering through the large bay windows. The room is adorned with elegant furnishings and ornate decorations, reflecting the affluence and sophistication of the family. At the heart of the image, the family members, dressed in their Sunday best, are gathered around a portable photographic studio. The father, with a proud and contented expression, stands at the center, holding a young child in his arms. His wife, with a gentle smile, stands beside him, her arms wrapped around their youngest child. The older siblings, dressed in their Sunday best, are arranged around the family, some sitting on chairs, others standing, all looking intently at the camera. The photographer, a man in a black suit and bow tie, stands behind the camera, adjusting the focus and preparing to take the shot. The cameraman, dressed in a similar fashion, stands to the side, holding a large reflector to bounce light onto the subjects. The scene is filled with a sense of anticipation and excitement, as the family prepares to capture a moment in time that they will cherish forever. This beautiful illustration, created by Alfred Leete for the Illustrated London News in 1928, captures the essence of family and the importance of preserving memories. It is a reminder of the simple pleasures of life and the importance of cherishing the moments spent with loved ones. The image is a testament to the enduring power of photography to capture and preserve the essence of a moment in time, making it a treasured keepsake for generations to come.
