EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in the bustling cityscape of 1920s London, this photograph transports us to a unique moment in time. Perched atop Adelaide House, office workers find solace from their daily routines as they engage in an unexpected leisure activity - golf practice. Against the backdrop of towering architecture and majestic columns, these men have transformed the rooftop into their own personal putting green. With focused determination, they navigate the intricately designed holes, honing their skills amidst a sea of sepia-toned nostalgia. This image not only showcases the game itself but also offers a glimpse into the spirit of camaraderie among colleagues during this era. In an age defined by hard work and long hours, these individuals seize a precious opportunity to unwind and indulge in some friendly competition. The timeless appeal of this scene lies not only in its historical significance but also in its ability to resonate with modern viewers. It serves as a reminder that even amidst bustling urban landscapes, there is always room for recreation and play. As we gaze upon this remarkable snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded that life's simplest pleasures can be found even within concrete jungles. This photograph captures both the essence of early 20th-century London and our universal desire for moments of respite from our busy lives.
