EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, taken by Alfieri in the 1920s, we are transported back to the lively atmosphere of the Worthing carnival. The image captures Lord Winterton, a distinguished aristocrat, as he presents prizes at the Fancy Dress competition. The scene is filled with excitement and anticipation as children and adults alike gather around to witness this special moment. A group of young girls dressed in charming costumes can be seen eagerly waiting for their turn to receive recognition for their creative attire. Their faces beam with joy and pride, reflecting the effort they put into their outfits. Amongst them stand a few boys who have also embraced the spirit of fancy dress, showcasing their imaginative ensembles. Lord Winterton himself exudes an air of authority and sophistication as he engages with each participant, acknowledging their dedication to making this carnival a memorable event. Alfieri's monochrome composition adds depth and timelessness to this snapshot from history. It serves as a reminder of how even in simpler times, community celebrations brought people together in shared moments of happiness and camaraderie. This remarkable photograph from Europeana Photography not only captures a specific event but also encapsulates an era when dressing up was more than just putting on clothes – it was an opportunity for self-expression and celebration that transcended age or social status.
