EDITORS COMMENTS
In this heartwarming print from the "Life in the Mirror" series by photographer Bela Zola, we are transported back to a magical moment during Christmas time in 1954. The image captures the innocence and joy of childhood as a little boy eagerly shakes hands with Father Christmas at the iconic Selfridges store on Oxford Street. The scene is filled with holiday cheer, as festive decorations adorn every corner of the store. Father Christmas, dressed in his traditional red suit and white beard, exudes warmth and kindness as he interacts with children who have come to visit him. This particular encounter holds special significance because Selfridges was one of the few stores in the country where meeting Father Christmas came at no cost. The photograph not only encapsulates a nostalgic snapshot of 1950s Britain but also serves as a reminder of the timeless tradition that brings smiles to children's faces year after year. It transports us back to an era when department stores were bustling hubs of excitement during Christmastime. Bela Zola's "Life in the Mirror" series beautifully captures these fleeting moments that define our collective memories. Through his lens, he immortalizes cherished experiences like this one – innocent encounters between children and Santa Claus that evoke feelings of wonderment and pure joy.
