Description
An account of the resource
Sepia toned silver gelatin print.
This complex photographic composition captures a fleeting moment of intimacy between Ella Grainger and her husband. Ella’s expression and body language suggest adoration, whereas Percy’s attention is turned inward in an intense moment of contemplation. This is also an image full of information. The building behind—Ella’s cottage ‘Lilla Vran’ on the Sussex coast in England—is constructed in an intriguing manner. To the right of the couple, pebble-dash covers brickwork, but to the left, regular coursing of river pebbles are concreted between brick quoins. Ella and Percy’s dress is interesting—almost timeless. They could be a pair of middle-aged ‘hipsters’ photographed in 2017. Percy’s Mary-Jane shoes are not as feminine as they appear, however. It was not uncommon for men to wear them in the 1930s.
