EDITORS COMMENTS
In this nostalgic print from February 1935, we are transported back to the picturesque Corbiere Lighthouse in Jersey. The image captures a heartwarming moment as the two sons of the lighthouse keeper joyfully play on the causeway that leads to their father's workplace - the towering light where he spends most of his time. The focus of attention is undoubtedly on these two young boys and their soapbox cart, which they skillfully maneuver along the rocky beach. Their carefree laughter echoes through the air, blending harmoniously with crashing waves and seagulls' cries. It is a scene that epitomizes childhood innocence and adventure. As we delve deeper into this snapshot, it becomes apparent that there are underlying themes at play here. Toys symbolize imagination and creativity while also reflecting upon simpler times when children found joy in simple objects like soapboxes transformed into vehicles of exploration. Moreover, this photograph serves as a reminder of how crucial lighthouses were for navigation and shipping during those years. Situated near the English Channel and Channel Islands, Corbiere Lighthouse played an essential role in guiding vessels safely through treacherous waters. Overall, this image encapsulates both personal memories for those involved but also represents a broader historical context. It invites us to reflect on cherished moments spent by the coastlines during holidays – building sandcastles, exploring rock pools or simply basking in nature's beauty.
