EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the idyllic summer of 1929, where holidaymakers flocked to the picturesque sea front at Lynmouth on the north coast of Devon. This print captures a timeless moment from that era, taken from the Esplanade and showcasing the breathtaking beauty of this coastal gem. In this enchanting scene, we are drawn towards the original iconic Rhenish Tower standing proudly on the pier to the right. A symbol of strength and resilience, it would sadly succumb to destruction during the devastating summer flood of 1952. However, thanks to unwavering determination and love for their beloved landmark, it was rebuilt just two years later with a similar design. The image transports us back in time as we imagine strolling along this vibrant esplanade filled with joyous holidaymakers enjoying their well-deserved break. The sound of crashing waves against golden sands fills our ears as we take in panoramic views of North Devon's stunning coastline. This remarkable print not only preserves a precious moment frozen in time but also serves as a poignant reminder that even nature's fury cannot extinguish human spirit and dedication. It is an invitation for all who gaze upon it to appreciate both history and resilience while cherishing every visit they make to this extraordinary place.
