EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, taken by Alfieri on 22 May 1926, transports us back to a simpler time at Ramsgate beach. The image showcases the delightful sight of donkeys gracefully strolling across the sandy shores, accompanied by their cheerful young riders. The innocence and joy radiating from the children's faces is truly heartwarming. Their beaming smiles capture the carefree spirit of youth as they embark on an unforgettable adventure atop these gentle creatures. It is evident that this experience has brought immense happiness to both the children and their four-legged companions. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless charm to this snapshot from the past, emphasizing its historical significance as a relic of early 20th-century European beach culture. This photograph serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of seaside holidays, where families would flock to enjoy sun-soaked days filled with laughter and relaxation. As we gaze upon this scene frozen in time, we are reminded of how precious childhood memories can be. The combination of donkeys, sandcastles, and salty sea air evokes nostalgia for carefree summer days spent building sand sculptures and chasing waves. Alfieri's expertly captured moment encapsulates not only a slice of Kentish history but also embodies the universal joy found in simple pleasures shared between humans and animals alike.
