Beards Brothers Ceremony Dedication Freemasons Groups Initiation Kiss Kisses Pretend Recipient Rewards Societies
EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures the moment of initiation in a turn-of-the-century secret society, with the Prince of Jerusalem receiving his rewards for dedication on a recent mission. The scene is filled with a sense of camaraderie and joviality, as the Brothers, dressed in traditional regalia and wearing pretend beards, bestow kisses and a golden crown made of paper upon their new member. The golden crown, a symbol of honor and respect, is crafted meticulously from intricately folded and layered sheets of paper, adding to the ceremony's grandeur. The reciprocal exchange of kisses signifies the formation of a bond between the Brothers and the new initiate, symbolizing unity and brotherhood. The setting, adorned with rich textures and warm lighting, further emphasizes the social and emotional significance of the occasion. The image, taken in the 1890s, offers a glimpse into the secretive world of societies and freemasonry, where tradition, ritual, and the forging of deep connections continue to thrive.
