EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the vibrant streets of Brighton in 1948. The image captures a nostalgic view of The Lanes, adorned with numerous antique and curio shops that line the narrow street. As we delve into this snapshot from the past, we are transported to a time when these charming lanes were bustling with activity. Intriguingly, amidst the quaint storefronts and cobbled paths, people can be seen strolling leisurely in the background. Their presence adds an element of life and movement to this otherwise still frame frozen in time. It's as if they have become part of history themselves, leaving their mark on this iconic location. The George Garland Collection has preserved this remarkable moment for us all to appreciate today. This valuable piece of history offers a glimpse into an era where craftsmanship and unique treasures were cherished by both locals and visitors alike. As our eyes wander through the photograph, it is impossible not to notice various signs and advertisements adorning the shopfronts. These vintage displays add character to The Lanes' atmosphere while also serving as reminders of how businesses communicated with passersby during that period. Thanks to West Sussex Record Office Ref No. Garland N29730, we are fortunate enough to witness Brighton's charm from over seven decades ago—a testament to its enduring allure throughout generations.
