Celebrations Copy1 Habit Habits Jubilee Under Age


EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing photograph captures the image of a young girl, no more than 24 years old, celebrating the Royal Jubilee of Queen Victoria in 1887. The girl is seen sitting on a wooden chair, dressed in a golden gown, with a look of mischief and excitement in her eyes. In her left hand, she holds a bottle, taking a sip from it, while in her right hand, she cradles a pipe, puffing on it with a serious expression. The table before her is adorned with a glass, adding to the scene of an underage girl indulging in adult habits. Despite the festive occasion, the image raises concerns about the girl's wellbeing and the societal norms of the time. The Royal Jubilee was a significant event in British history, and it is surprising to see a young girl partaking in activities typically associated with adults, such as smoking and drinking. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, highlighting the complexities and contradictions of Victorian society. The girl's golden gown and the ornate decorations in the background add to the opulence of the Jubilee celebrations, making the image even more intriguing. The photograph is a reminder of the historical context of the time and the societal norms that allowed such behaviors to be accepted. This photograph, with its unique composition and intriguing subject matter, is a fascinating addition to any collection of historical images. It offers a glimpse into the past, providing insights into the lives of people during the Victorian era and the societal norms that shaped their behaviors.
