EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, taken on the 12th of January 1923 at Waterloo Station in London, we witness a poignant moment of departure. The Reverend Vale Owen, accompanied by his family and fellow clergymen, prepares to embark on a journey to America. The image showcases a group of individuals standing together on the platform next to a train carriage. From left to right, we see Mr Leslie Curnow, Miss Felicia R Scatcherd, Mr H W Engholm, Mrs Owen, Reverend C Vale Owen himself, Mrs Owen (presumably his wife), and Reverend Eustace Owen. Each person's expression reveals a mix of emotions - anticipation for what lies ahead but also sadness at parting ways. This snapshot from the 1920s captures not only the fashion and style of that era but also reflects the spirit of adventure and exploration prevalent during those times. The monochrome tones add an air of nostalgia as we imagine ourselves transported back in time. As they stand amidst bustling activity at one of London's busiest stations, it is evident that this family holds deep ties with their community. Their departure signifies not just personal change but also represents broader cultural shifts occurring across Europe in the early twentieth century. Alfieri's skillful composition immortalizes this significant moment in history – one filled with hope for new beginnings yet tinged with bittersweet farewells.
