EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1930, showcases the enchanting front entrance of St. James Hotel, nestled near Muizenberg in the Cape Peninsula of South Africa. The coastal location of this elegant establishment is highlighted by the tranquil blue waters of the Atlantic Ocean, crashing gently against the rocky shoreline. The whitewashed walls of the hotel, adorned with vibrant trees and lush greenery, exude a sense of calm and serenity. The trees, with their outstretched branches, provide a picturesque frame for the grand entrance, while the hills in the background add depth and dimension to the scene. The balconies of the hotel, adorned with wrought-iron railings and whitewashed columns, offer a glimpse into the past, inviting us to imagine the leisurely afternoons spent by guests taking in the breathtaking views of the coastline. The whitewash on the buildings adds to the timeless charm of this historic hotel, which has stood the test of time and continues to be a beloved destination for travelers seeking a taste of the African coast in the 1930s. The St. James Hotel, with its stunning location and classic design, is a testament to the rich history and beauty of South Africa's Cape Peninsula. This photograph transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate the elegance and charm of a bygone era.
