A crowded beach stretches across the width of this panorama, with a long pier reaching into the water and a pavilion standing near the shore. The wide format was a popular choice for seaside resorts, which drew large crowds in summer and made the whole stretch of sand a subject worth recording. Pictures like this show how people gathered at the water's edge in the era of bathing machines, promenades and fashionable seaside holidays, and the pier and pavilion mark the spots where visitors went to walk, listen to music and watch the waves.
