EDITORS COMMENTS
This image is a print from The Herald's mid-summer number, published on Sunday, June 23rd, 1895. The photograph, created by Charles Hubbard Wright, transports us back in time to the late 19th century in America. The scene depicts a woman, dressed in a brown, Victorian-era dress with a high collar and long sleeves, seated at the seaside. She is engrossed in the process of sifting sand through a sieve, perhaps searching for treasures or enjoying a simple pastime. The English text on the poster reads "The New-York Herald's Mid-Summer Number," with the date and creator's name prominently displayed. The woman's serene expression and the tranquil setting convey the essence of a summer holiday, a time for relaxation and enjoyment of nature. The image is a testament to the fashion trends of the era, with the woman's dress and the brown color palette reflecting the popular apparel of the time. This photograph is a valuable piece of heritage art, preserved in the Wallach Division Picture Collection at the New York Public Library. The intricate lettering and Western script add to the vintage appeal, making it a fascinating glimpse into the past. The image captures the essence of a midsummer day in the late 19th century, a time of relaxation and enjoyment of the simple pleasures of life.
