EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph that transports us back in time to an era of entertainment and joy. The image, captured in 1905, depicts a charming skater gracefully leading a Pierrot and other revelers onto the ice rink. Dressed in a flowing, ankle-length skirt and a cozy sweater, the skater holds a long, ornate stick adorned with an elegant orange Chinese lantern. Her expression is one of delight and excitement, as she invites her companions to join her on the frozen surface. The Pierrot, a traditional comic character from the commedia dell'arte, follows behind her, his white face paint and baggy clothes adding a touch of whimsy to the scene. The other revellers, dressed in various costumes, eagerly make their way onto the ice, their laughter and chatter filling the air. The ice skates of the group can be seen scattered around them, a testament to their shared love for the winter pastime. This postcard, taken by Leonard Linsdell for Mary Evans Prints Online, is a delightful snapshot of a bygone era. The image evokes feelings of nostalgia and joy, reminding us of the simple pleasures that bring people together. The use of natural light, the vibrant colors of the costumes, and the lively energy of the scene make this photograph a true treasure. Whether you're an ice skating enthusiast, a history buff, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of a well-captured moment, "Greetings to you all: A Pretty Skater Leads a Pierrot and Other Revellers Onto the Ice (1905)" is a must-see.
