EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming hand-coloured photograph captures the serene moment of two women enjoying the picturesque beauty of a rural setting, circa 1900. The scene is set at the Graystone Bird, Bath, a tranquil spot by a slow-moving river. The women, dressed in elegant Victorian attire, sit comfortably on the grassy bank, their gazes fixed on the gentle flow of the water. The gray stone birdbath, a quaint addition to the landscape, adds a touch of whimsy and elegance to the scene. The photograph is part of the Boswell collection, Box 365, Miscellaneous Part 1, and is a testament to the past, offering a glimpse into a bygone era. The use of hand-colouring adds a vibrant and rich quality to the image, enhancing the natural colours of the scene and bringing it to life. The lantern slide, likely used for projection in the late 19th or early 20th century, further adds to the historical significance of the photograph. The peaceful setting of the Graystone Bird, Bath, with its slow-moving river and picturesque surroundings, offers a respite from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The two women, engrossed in the beauty of their surroundings, embody the desire for relaxation and enjoyment of nature that continues to resonate with us today. This photograph serves as a reminder of the simple pleasures of the past and the enduring beauty of nature.
