EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1938, capturing the essence of Wickhambreaux village post office near Canterbury, Kent. The image transports us to a time between the wars when life was simpler yet full of character. The post office stands proudly amidst its surroundings, showcasing stunning stonework that has withstood the test of time. Its charming facade is adorned with signs that beckon passersby to step inside and experience a piece of history. A weathered wooden sign above the entrance proudly proclaims "Wickhambreaux village post office" offering a glimpse into an era where handwritten letters were cherished means of communication. A man stands in front of this old building, adding depth and context to the scene. His presence suggests he may be either a visitor or perhaps even one who works within these walls, diligently serving his community. The monochrome composition adds an air of nostalgia and timelessness to this photograph by John Topham from TopFoto's Europeana photography collection. It invites viewers to imagine what life was like during those years gone by - bustling streets filled with horse-drawn carriages, women in elegant dresses going about their daily chores, and children playing freely on cobblestone roads. This print serves as a beautiful reminder that even in our fast-paced modern world, there is something enchanting about looking back at moments frozen in time - moments that shaped our past and continue to inspire us today.
