EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken by Alfieri on 2 August 1929, we witness a moment frozen in time. Sailors, fresh off their duty on HMS Centurion, arrive at Waterloo station on leave, attache cases in hand. The image encapsulates the essence of the interwar period in Europe. The sailors' attire reflects the fashion of the roaring twenties - crisp naval uniforms adorned with caps and ties. Their serious expressions hint at both weariness from their service and anticipation for their well-deserved break. As they step onto solid ground after months spent at sea, one can almost feel their relief and excitement permeating through the photograph. Waterloo station serves as a backdrop to this scene, bustling with activity as passengers rush past these weary seafarers. The contrast between the sailors' disciplined presence and the chaotic energy surrounding them is striking. Alfieri's monochrome composition adds an air of nostalgia to this snapshot from history. It transports us back to a time when travel was slower-paced yet filled with adventure and uncertainty. This print captures not only a specific moment but also evokes broader themes of sacrifice, camaraderie, and longing for home that resonate across generations. It stands as a testament to those who served in the Royal Navy during this era – brave souls who found solace amidst chaos while carrying out their duties far away from loved ones
