EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1912, depicts an entertaining scene at Government House on the beautiful island of Mahe in the Seychelles, located in the Indian Ocean. The image transports us back in time to the early 1910s, an era of leisure and enjoyment. The lush, green grass of the Government House lawn serves as the perfect backdrop for this delightful gathering. Men and women, dressed in their finest 18th-century inspired fancy dress costumes, mingle and socialize, their faces reflecting joy and amusement. The women, adorned with fans, add an air of elegance and sophistication to the event. The atmosphere is filled with the sounds of laughter and music, as men and women dance together, their movements graceful and fluid. The setting sun casts a warm, golden glow over the scene, adding to the sense of magic and wonder. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the Seychelles, a time when entertainment and enjoyment were at the forefront of social gatherings. The beauty of the island, with its crystal-clear waters and tropical climate, only adds to the allure of this enchanting moment in history.
