EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the early 1900s, capturing a serene moment in Hyde Park, City of Westminster, Greater London. The image showcases a charming tea garden nestled within the lush greenery of this iconic public park. Underneath a dainty parasol, we see a waiter diligently serving an elegantly set table occupied by contented customers. The scene exudes an air of leisure and tranquility as people indulge in the simple pleasure of taking tea amidst nature's embrace. It is fascinating to witness how even over a century ago, Hyde Park was already providing respite from the bustling city life for Londoners seeking solace and relaxation. Katherine MacFee's skilled lens perfectly captures the essence of this idyllic setting. The composition effortlessly draws our attention to every detail - from the delicate teacups on the table to the intricate patterns on their saucers. The monochrome palette adds depth and timelessness to this snapshot from history. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph, it serves as a reminder that some pleasures remain timeless; savoring good company, delicious food and drink while basking in nature's beauty will always be cherished moments worth preserving.
