Launch of ED.EM.04: Victoria & Albert - on the piers
Fourth issue in a series of photo-zines produced by Éditions Emile – an imprint celebrating the unique collections held in the @sjphotoarchive in the island of Jersey.
Issue four considers the development and use of Victoria and Albert Piers. A recent donation to the Société Jersiaise Photographic Archive showing work being carried out to the piers between 1929-31 forms the backbone of the zine, with contemporary photographs, produced by four local photographers placing recent construction work to the piers within this historical and social context. Doug Ford, Maritime Historian and former Community Learning Director at Jersey Heritage, has written a new text for this issue; a concise history of the piers up to date, providing the broader context of a working harbour for an island community.
