EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the George Garland Collection, we are transported back to a sunny day in March 1938 on a river bank in Stopham, West Sussex. The image captures a group of young ladies exuding joy and carefree spirit as they strike playful poses against the picturesque backdrop. Shadows dance across their faces, adding depth to the scene and highlighting their radiant smiles. The crystal-clear water glistens under the warm spring sun, tempting these adventurous souls to dip their toes into its refreshing embrace. Despite the chill in the air, their bathing costumes reveal their determination to make every moment count – embracing life's simple pleasures amidst nature's beauty. Surrounded by lush countryside, these vibrant women embody an era where leisurely activities were cherished and embraced with enthusiasm. Their swimsuits reflect the fashion trends of the 1930s while symbolizing liberation and empowerment for women during that time. This snapshot freezes a fleeting moment filled with laughter, friendship, and youthful energy. It serves as a reminder that even in simpler times when technology was scarce, happiness could be found through genuine connections and immersing oneself in nature's wonders. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office Ref No: Garland N16507, this photograph is not just an artifact but also a testament to human resilience and our innate ability to find joy even amidst challenging circumstances.
