EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the winter of 1939, as captured by photographer Alfieri Bernard. This enchanting print showcases a nostalgic scene of beer delivery in the snow to The Old Crown public house on Union Street in Kingston Upon Thames, England. In this snapshot from the past, we are transported to a bustling street filled with shoppers and market stalls adorned with delicate snowflakes. Amidst the flurry of activity, two magnificent brewers dray horses stand proudly outside Hodgsons Brewery, their majestic presence commanding attention. The shire horses, draped in cozy blankets and sporting nose bags filled with nourishment, patiently await their turn to transport barrels of frothy goodness through the wintry streets. These gentle giants were an integral part of everyday life during this era - loyal companions who tirelessly served their purpose. As we observe this image further, our gaze is drawn towards a flower seller nearby. Undeterred by the cold weather, she continues her trade passionately amidst nature's frozen beauty. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to resilience and determination that defined generations past. It reminds us of simpler times when community spirit thrived even under challenging circumstances. Alfieri Bernard's lens has immortalized this slice of history for all to admire – an evocative reminder that even amidst snowy winters and changing times; traditions endure.
