EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a serene moment on the beach at Conwy, North Wales, on the 10th of June in 1939. The scene is filled with the gentle sounds of the lapping waves and the distant calls of seagulls. The sandy shore is dotted with families and groups of friends, who have come to enjoy the sunny day by the sea. In the foreground, a small fishing boat rests on the sand, its sails rolled up and oars stowed. Nearby, a man in a striped sweater and trousers wades into the water, casting a line in hopes of a catch. A young boy, dressed in a swimsuit and knickers, explores the rocky shoreline, while a woman in a sun hat and dress watches over him from a blanket. In the background, the majestic Conwy Castle stands proudly on the right, its towering walls and turrets framing the scene perfectly. The castle, built in the late 13th century, is a testament to the rich history and heritage of this beautiful coastal town. The photograph, taken in the late 1930s, captures the essence of a simpler time, when the pleasures of a day at the beach were simple and uncomplicated. The warm sun, the cool water, and the company of loved ones were all that were needed for a perfect day. This timeless scene at Conwy Beach remains a cherished memory for many, and continues to draw visitors from around the world to experience the natural beauty and charm of North Wales.
