EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print, dating back to circa 1870, transports us back in time to an era of impressive Victorian child fashions. The image features a delightful group of children engaged in playful activities, each dressed in the height of fashion for their age. In the foreground, a boy proudly wears a D-B jacket with a cape, paired with knickerbockers, striped socks, and heeled boots. His attire is a testament to the intricate detailing and rich textures that characterized boys' clothing during this period. The cape, with its flowing design, would have protected him from the elements, while the heeled boots added an air of sophistication. The girls, dressed in elegant outfits, are a sight to behold. The first girl wears a striped polonaise with a fringed cape, while the second dons a tunic dress with dentate hems, bustles, and button trim. Their outfits reflect the ornate and intricate designs that were popular among girls' clothing during this time. The children are gathered around a Chinese-style game table, playing with toys that were all the rage during the Victorian era. The table, adorned with urns and cues, is home to a game of Bagatelle, a popular pastime for the upper class. In the background, a horse and cart add to the scene, further emphasizing the historical context of the photograph. This photograph is an impressive reminder of the rich history and playful nature of childhood during the Victorian era. The children's joy and the intricate details of their clothing serve as a window into the past, providing us with a glimpse into a time long gone.
