EDITORS COMMENTS
In this image from 1853, two small boys, dressed in typical 1850s attire, cannot help but chuckle at the sight of a well-dressed gentleman, who has inadvertently drawn their attention with his outrageously patterned waistcoat. The man, unaware of the amusement he is causing, continues on his way, his grandiose fashion statement a stark contrast to the simple garments worn by the young onlookers. The year was 1853, a time when fashion was an expression of wealth and status, and the more extravagant, the better. The gentleman's waistcoat, adorned with an intricate design of crawling hedgehogs, had become the talk of the town. His waistcoat, along with his top hat and cane, were symbols of his affluence and social standing. The boys, however, find the man's attire anything but impressive. With wide grins and pointing fingers, they share a laugh at the sight of the man's "lot of hadders a crawlin hover im," as they put it. Their innocent amusement adds a touch of satire to the scene, highlighting the absurdity of the man's fashion choices. This image, captured in a moment of light-hearted fun, offers a glimpse into the fashion trends of the time and the contrasting perspectives of the young and the old. It is a reminder that even in the most formal of settings, there is always room for a little laughter and levity. The photograph, taken in 1853, is a testament to the enduring power of fashion and the human spirit. It invites us to reflect on the absurdities of the past and the joy that can be found in the most unexpected places.
