EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Learn to Swim, 1937" takes us back in time to a bygone era. The image is extracted from the pages of The Children's Golden Treasure Book for 1937, edited by John R. Crossland and J. M. Parrish, published by Odhams Press Ltd. in London. The photograph captures a momentous day outdoors at the sea, where children are learning the art of swimming amidst cloudy weather conditions. Clad in their swimsuits and caps, they eagerly embrace the opportunity to conquer the waves while mastering different swimming techniques such as breaststroke and front crawl. The monochrome composition adds a timeless quality to this early 20th-century snapshot that showcases both leisurely activities and educational content within literature for young readers. The English text accompanying the image provides valuable geographical information about various coastal features. As we gaze into this portrait frozen in time, we can almost feel the excitement emanating from these young swimmers as they navigate through surface-level waters towards an unseen horizon. This print serves as a reminder of how important it is for children to learn essential life skills while immersing themselves in nature's elements. With its historical significance and aesthetic appeal, this print offers us a glimpse into an era when swimming was not only seen as recreational but also held educational value – making it an invaluable addition to any collection or display celebrating our rich cultural heritage.
