Curator’s notes
This black and white footage contains remarkably clear, clean images. The brightness of the afternoon is captured through the high contrast between light and shade of the images, and gives a sense that it was a warm sunny day. The routine of picnickers is vividly captured along with details of 1960s day-to-day items, clothing and vehicles.
