Step back in time to the vibrant summer of 1964, as captured by George Greenwell's lens. This print unveils a momentous occasion - the grand opening of the Oasis outdoor swimming pool in Holborn. As Londoners eagerly embraced the arrival of warmer days, this oasis became their ultimate retreat from bustling city life. The image transports us to an era where open-air leisure activities were cherished and relished by all. The scene is alive with excitement and anticipation as families, friends, and individuals gather around the sparkling blue waters. Laughter fills the air while children splash joyfully, creating ripples that mirror their boundless enthusiasm. Greenwell's composition perfectly encapsulates the essence of this lido culture that thrived during the 1960s. The sun-kissed surroundings invite visitors to bask in its warmth, providing respite from everyday routines. It serves as a reminder that even amidst urban landscapes, nature can be harnessed to create moments of tranquility and rejuvenation.
