This 1967 photograph shows a picnic beside a white Vauxhall Victor at Fort Southwick, with the grassy hillside falling away to a wide view over Portsmouth Harbour below. The parked Victor, folding chairs, picnic things and relaxed couple in the foreground give the scene an everyday holiday feel, while the panorama beyond adds a much larger sense of place. Across the water are the busy naval and industrial edges of Portsmouth and its harbour approaches, making a striking contrast with the quiet sunlit bank where the pair have stopped for lunch. More than a simple car photograph, it captures the appeal of the British roadside picnic at a time when a family saloon, a good viewpoint and a patch of grass were often all that was needed for a day out.
