EDITORS COMMENTS
This image transports us back in time to an icy winter scene in Russia, circa 1800. The photograph depicts a lively group of individuals engaged in the popular winter pastime of tobogganing. Dressed in thick fur coats and hats, they eagerly climb up an artificial slope, their faces filled with excitement and anticipation. The toboggans, or sledges, used in this scene are not the modern, sleek versions we know today, but rather, simple wooden structures with runners attached. The riders hold onto ropes or handles for balance and control as they hurtle down the slope, their laughter and cheers echoing through the frosty air. Artificial slopes, such as the one depicted in this photograph, were a popular innovation in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. They allowed people to enjoy the thrill of sledding without having to rely on natural snow conditions. This not only extended the tobogganing season but also made it possible for more people to participate in the activity, regardless of where they lived. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing a fun and enjoyable winter activity that has stood the test of time. It also highlights the resourcefulness and ingenuity of people in creating entertainment and enjoyment, even in the harshest of winter conditions.
