EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Bernard Alfieri, we are transported back to the bustling streets of Kingston Upon Thames in January 1939. The image showcases a group of dedicated council workmen diligently repairing a road, providing us with a glimpse into the construction practices and street scenes of that era. The scene is filled with activity as these hardworking individuals go about their tasks. With spades in hand and determination etched on their faces, they meticulously lay down layers of tar and tarmac to ensure smooth passage for both pedestrians and horse-drawn carts. A magnificent steam roller stands tall nearby, ready to compact the freshly laid surface. This snapshot not only highlights the importance of local government initiatives but also sheds light on the transportation methods prevalent during that time. Horse and cart can be seen traversing through the partially repaired road, showcasing how different modes of transport coexisted harmoniously. As we immerse ourselves in this historic moment frozen in time, it serves as a reminder of our collective responsibility towards maintaining our environment. Witnessing these council workers' dedication to improving infrastructure prompts us to reflect upon our own roles in preserving our surroundings for future generations. Bernard Alfieri's skillful composition beautifully captures an ordinary yet significant moment from 1930s England – one that encapsulates progress, community engagement, and pride in craftsmanship. This evocative photograph transports us back decades ago while reminding us of timeless values still relevant today: hard work, collaboration, and care for our shared spaces.
