EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph captures the essence of a cherished tradition at Vassar College in Poughkeepsie, New York State, USA, circa 1915. The Daisy Chain event, a beloved custom that has been part of the college's rich history for generations, is depicted in this stunning image. The scene unfolds on the lush, verdant campus, surrounded by the picturesque beauty of trees in full bloom and the gentle sway of grasses in the breeze. A group of young women, dressed in their finest white gowns, gracefully form a circle, their hands linked together to create a beautiful daisy chain. The sight of these women, adorned in their elegant attire, adds an air of sophistication and charm to the scene. Spectators, both men and women, gather around the circle, their expressions filled with admiration and delight. The atmosphere is one of joy, camaraderie, and celebration, as the women take turns stepping into the circle to join the chain. The tradition of the Daisy Chain was a symbol of unity, sisterhood, and the beauty of the natural world, encapsulating the spirit of Vassar College and the values it instilled in its students during the early 1900s. This photograph is a captivating reminder of the enduring traditions and customs that have shaped the educational landscape of America, particularly during the 1910s. It invites us to reflect on the importance of community, tradition, and the simple joys of life, making it a truly timeless piece of American history.
