EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to Dell Quay in the year 1908. The view across the water reveals a serene scene, with the tide out and buildings lining the quay. It is a snapshot of a bygone era, frozen in time for us to marvel at. The charm of this image lies not only in its historical significance but also in its composition. The photographer skillfully captures the essence of Dell Quay, showcasing its picturesque beauty. The tranquil waters mirror the surrounding structures, creating a harmonious reflection that adds depth to the photograph. The buildings on the quay stand tall and proud, bearing witness to years of maritime activity and trade. Their architectural details hint at their purpose - perhaps warehouses or workshops that once bustled with life as boats docked nearby. Speaking of boats, they too make an appearance in this evocative scene. Though small and distant, they add movement and vitality to an otherwise still landscape. These vessels were likely integral to Dell Quay's livelihood during that period – connecting it with neighboring towns or transporting goods along West Sussex's waterways. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's Photographic Collection, this remarkable print offers us a glimpse into history through photography's lens. It serves as a reminder of how much has changed over time while celebrating Dell Quay's enduring allure.
