EDITORS COMMENTS
"This photograph captures the quintessential English scene of a rainy day in Epsom, Surrey, circa 1930s. The pavement glistens with raindrops, reflecting the gray, overcast sky above. A lone bicycle, its tires slick with rain, leans against a lamppost, while a Morris 12 car, its hood raised to protect against the elements, is parked opposite the Conservative Club. The men in the scene, bundled up against the wet weather, appear to be in a hurry, with one man running down the street and another emerging from the club. The image evokes a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era, when transportation consisted of bicycles and cars, and the simple pleasure of a day out in the rain was a shared experience. This photograph, taken by an unknown photographer, is a testament to the enduring charm of rainy days in small-town England and the resilience of its people." --Mary Evans Picture Library, London.
