Smiling Faces
If you are locked-in, socially isolated, tired of twiddling your thumbs: what better to do than to go searching for photographs. You can’t get out, however; so the search has to be conducted from the safety of your desktop. You don’t even need a stack of pictures: old photographs have layer after layer of art locked up within them. All I know about the original picture is that it was taken in 1928 somewhere in South Devon. I have no idea who the various subject of this photograph are – but that doesn’t matter: we are in search of patterns and pleasing images rather than family history.
It’s very reminiscent of some photos of my mother when she was young, in the 1930s, on holiday. Though this looks earlier.
