EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant coloured lithograph from 1900 captures a lively beach scene, showcasing the leisurely activities of men, women, and children enjoying their time by the shore. The print exudes a sense of nostalgia as it takes us back to an era when seaside resorts were popular destinations for relaxation and fun. In the foreground, we see families strolling along the sandy beach, with adults donning fashionable bathing dresses of the time. The women's long skirts are lifted slightly to avoid getting wet while they paddle in the shallow waves. Children can be seen playing and splashing around joyfully in the water. Further back, a grand hotel stands proudly against a backdrop of blue skies and rolling waves. Its presence adds an air of sophistication to this idyllic setting. Visitors can be spotted taking leisurely walks along the shoreline or simply basking in the sun on deck chairs. The artist William Thomas Smedley has skillfully captured both the bustling atmosphere and serene beauty of this beach scene through his use of vivid colors and intricate details. This print serves as a delightful window into early 20th-century coastal life, evoking feelings of warmth and tranquility that still resonate today.
