EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "The Holiday Exodus from London, 1906" takes us back in time to the bustling Waterloo station. The image captures the excitement and anticipation of holiday makers as they await their trains to Swanage and Weymouth. In this snapshot of early 20th century England, we see a diverse crowd of men and women gathered on the platform. The scene is filled with energy as people chat animatedly, clutching their luggage tightly. Some are dressed in elegant attire while others sport more casual clothing, reflecting the mix of social classes embarking on their vacations. The elevated view allows us to appreciate the sheer scale of this exodus from London. It's remarkable how every inch of space seems occupied by individuals seeking an escape from city life for a day trip or longer holidays. Waterloo station serves as a gateway to adventure, symbolizing both freedom and exploration during that era. This monochrome photograph beautifully captures the essence of travel and transportation at its core - movement towards new horizons. As we gaze upon this historical gem preserved by The Tatler Volume 21 publication, it reminds us that even over a century ago, people craved leisure time away from their daily routines just like we do today. It serves as a testament to our timeless desire for discovery and rejuvenation amidst the hustle and bustle of urban life.
