EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting coastal town of Folkestone in 1896. The image, captured by Lambert Weston & Son, showcases "The Lees" a picturesque promenade that overlooks the English Channel. The historic significance of this location is evident as it was featured in the renowned book "Pictorial England and Wales" published by Cassell and Company. In this snapshot, we see a bustling scene with people strolling along the cliffside walkway. A lady elegantly stands amidst the background figures, adding a touch of grace to the composition. The architectural beauty of Decimus Burton's buildings can be admired in their full glory against the stunning backdrop of cliffs and sea. The monochrome aesthetic enhances both the charm and timelessness of this vintage photograph. It transports us to an era when life moved at a slower pace, allowing for leisurely walks along scenic coastlines like these. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Heritage Images' collection, we are reminded not only of Britain's rich history but also its enduring natural beauty. This image serves as a window into a bygone era - one filled with literary inspiration and geographical wonders.
