EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of Old Shoreham and its church, as seen from the bridge over the tranquil river Adur. Taken in 1931 by renowned photographer Alfieri, this monochrome image transports us back to a bygone era on the south coast of England. The historical significance of this picture is undeniable, showcasing the architectural marvels that have stood the test of time. The buildings lining the riverbank exude a sense of grandeur and charm, while their reflection dances gracefully upon the calm waters below. The bridge itself serves as a symbolic gateway into this picturesque town, inviting visitors to explore its rich history and cultural heritage. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, we can almost hear echoes of footsteps crossing over its sturdy structure. Alfieri's masterful composition not only highlights these remarkable structures but also emphasizes their harmonious relationship with nature. The river Adur flows gently beneath them, acting as both a lifeline for trade and transportation and an enchanting backdrop for this scenic vista. As we delve deeper into Europeana Photography's vast collection, it becomes clear that images like these are windows into our shared past. They allow us to appreciate how much has changed over time while reminding us that some things remain constant – like our fascination with capturing moments through photography.
