EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a piece of history in the form of a receipt for swimming lessons. Dated back to 1935, this receipt originates from the prestigious Eton Swimming School, an institution renowned for its commitment to education and sports. The receipt itself is even more remarkable as it harks back to the middle of the 19th century, providing a glimpse into the past. The delicate handwriting on the receipt showcases elegant lettering that was characteristic of that era. Its monochrome aesthetic adds a touch of nostalgia, transporting us to a time when swimming lessons were documented with care and attention to detail. Taken from "The Eton Book of the River - With Some Account of the Thames and Evolution Boat-Racing" written by L. S. R. Byrne and E. L. Churchill, this print holds not only historical significance but also literary value. Published by Spottiswoode, Ballantyne & Co. , Ltd in Eton during 1935, this book offers insights into both English literature and aquatic traditions. As we admire this photograph, we are reminded of how education has evolved over time while still maintaining certain timeless elements such as swimming lessons at esteemed institutions like Eton College in Berkshire, England. This image serves as a testament to our enduring fascination with preserving moments from our past through artful documentation.
