EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from The Northcliffe Collection takes us back to the summer of 1937, where we find ourselves transported to the enchanting Victoria Pleasure Beach in Ilfracombe, Devon. Steeped in nostalgia and historic charm, this image captures a bygone era when seaside resorts were at their peak. The focal point of the photograph is undoubtedly the magnificent bandstand that proudly stands amidst a backdrop of stunning coastal views. Its elegant architecture and intricate details evoke a sense of grandeur and sophistication that was characteristic of that time. One can almost imagine the lively melodies drifting through the air as visitors gathered around, enjoying an afternoon filled with music and merriment. The beach itself exudes a timeless appeal, with its golden sands stretching out towards crystal-clear waters. Families stroll along the promenade hand-in-hand, children build sandcastles while laughter fills the air, creating an atmosphere brimming with joy and carefree happiness. Frank Rust's masterful composition allows us to step into this snapshot from history; it invites us to immerse ourselves in an era where simple pleasures reigned supreme. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of artistry, we are reminded of how much has changed over time but also how some things remain constant – our love for seaside getaways and cherished memories created by these idyllic destinations. This print serves as both a window into England's past and a testament to its enduring allure. It encapsulates not only the beauty of Ilfracombe
