EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the departure of Barnardo girls from Tilbury for Australia on the SS Euripides. The image showcases a group of brave young women, accompanied by men and their trusted captain, Captain P J Collins, O B E. Taken on 28 March 1923, this monochrome photograph evokes a sense of nostalgia for the early 20th century. The girls stand poised on the alfieri slip, ready to embark on an extraordinary journey towards new opportunities in a distant land. Their expressions reveal both excitement and trepidation as they prepare to bid farewell to Europe and embrace their future as emigrants. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness not just individuals but also symbols of hope and resilience. These courageous women represent countless others who sought better lives through immigration during that era. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from TopFoto. co. uk's collection, we are reminded of the power of photography to transport us back in time. It serves as a poignant reminder that behind every historical event lies personal stories waiting to be discovered
