EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in timeless black and white, this print transports us back to a momentous Christening at St Saviour's in Westgate on Sea. The year is 1922, and the focal point of the image is the cherubic infant Simon, cradled lovingly by his doting mother. Standing beside them is Mr Harold Warrender, exuding an air of pride and joy as he witnesses this sacred ceremony for his beloved son. Surrounded by their close-knit family group, including their other little son John, this snapshot offers a glimpse into the fashionable society of the roaring twenties. The adults are dressed impeccably in elegant attire that epitomizes the glamour of the era – from Alfieri's sophisticated ensemble to Mrs Warrender's stylish fashion choice. Adding depth to this scene is a nanny or nurse who stands nearby, her presence highlighting both tradition and practicality within this affluent household. Together with their loved ones, they have gathered within these hallowed church walls to celebrate a significant milestone in young Simon's life. This monochromatic masterpiece captures not only a single event but also echoes an entire decade steeped in history. It serves as a poignant reminder of how photographs can transcend time itself – freezing moments forever while allowing us to reflect upon our shared human experiences.
