EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'The Magic Interlude,' transports us back to a serene afternoon in July 1918, late in the first World War. Three children, engrossed in a spirited game of tennis on a lush, green lawn, are momentarily interrupted by an unexpected and awe-inspiring sight in the clear blue sky above. The intrusion of the modern world in the form of a high-flying aeroplane buzzing overhead, a common occurrence towards the end of the war, adds a sense of historical significance to this idyllic scene. The children's tennis rackets lie forgotten on the ground as they pause to gaze up at the aircraft, their wide-eyed expressions reflecting a mix of wonder and apprehension. The war planes had become a familiar sight in the sky by this time, but their presence still held a certain magic and mystery for the young onlookers. As we view this image, we are reminded of a time when the simple pleasures of a childhood game were momentarily put on hold by the realities of a global conflict. The contrast between the peaceful scene on the ground and the ominous presence of the war plane overhead serves as a poignant reminder of the historical context in which this moment unfolded. This photograph, a precious piece of history from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers us a glimpse into the past, inviting us to reflect on the interplay between the ordinary and the extraordinary, and the enduring power of a single moment to capture the imagination.
