EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of youthful joy and determination in the heart of Washington D. C. In 1926, four young women from the Marjorie Webster school, identified as Louise Walraven, Imogene Koonce, Helyn Braskie, and Helen Ackerman, are seen examining an archery target with great curiosity. Dressed in their early 20th-century attire, these American girls exude a sense of adventure and excitement. Their hats add a touch of elegance to their outdoor activity while showcasing the fashion trends of that era. With bows in hand and arrows at the ready, they embody both gracefulness and strength. The backdrop of this photo is none other than our nation's capital itself - Washington D. C. The North American architecture surrounding them serves as a reminder that even amidst urban landscapes, there is always room for leisurely pursuits like archery. Preserved by the Library of Congress archives, this image transports us back to a time when amusement was found through simple yet exhilarating activities such as archery. It reminds us that throughout history, young women have continuously defied societal expectations by engaging in sports traditionally associated with men. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Granger Art on Demand collection today, let us celebrate these trailblazing individuals who dared to challenge conventions while leaving behind an enduring legacy captured within this timeless photograph.
