EDITORS COMMENTS
The Royal Eagle leaving Tower Pier on a sunny summer day in 1936, captured beautifully by photographer Alfieri. This print takes us back to the vibrant atmosphere of the 20th century, specifically the roaring 20s. The pier is overflowing with excited holidaymakers eagerly awaiting their river adventure. In this monochrome masterpiece, we see a crew member standing tall on the motorboat's prow, dressed in his uniform with pride. His presence adds an air of authority amidst the bustling traffic of passengers boarding the paddle steamer. The Thames River serves as a picturesque backdrop for this lively scene. Every detail has been meticulously preserved: from the mooring lines securing the vessel to the life ring ready for any unforeseen circumstances. Tower Bridge stands majestically in all its glory, connecting both sides of London and symbolizing unity. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also transports us back to an era filled with joyous anticipation and carefree exploration along Europe's iconic waterways. It reminds us that even during challenging times like those faced in the 1930s, people found solace and happiness through travel experiences. Alfieri's work continues to inspire generations as it showcases not just historical landmarks but also human connection and shared experiences aboard these magnificent vessels.
