EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage postcard from 1913 captures the essence of a serene beach in Mers, France. The photograph, taken by an anonymous French photographer, showcases a picturesque scene filled with sand, umbrellas, and tourists enjoying their leisurely holiday. Amongst the parasols and sunbathers stands an unexpected visitor - a mischievous goat! This humorous addition adds charm to the image and highlights the carefree atmosphere of seaside vacations. The postcard is not only a beautiful piece of ephemera but also serves as a snapshot into early 20th-century tourism. It reflects the popularity of coastal destinations during that era and offers insight into how people spent their summer holidays. The presence of multiple animals, including goats roaming freely on the beach, adds to the uniqueness of this particular location. With its idyllic setting and playful touch provided by our four-legged friend, this postcard undoubtedly served as a cherished souvenir for those who received it or sent it back in 1913. Now preserved in private collection archives, this photograph continues to evoke nostalgia for simpler times when vacations were spent basking under parasols on sandy shores.
