EDITORS COMMENTS
This image transports us back to the 1880s, where we find Josephine 'Jo' March (played by Frank Thayer) from Louisa May Alcott's beloved novel, "Little Women," engaged in a lively scene at Mrs. Chester's fair. The young woman, known for her independent spirit and entrepreneurial nature, is selling flowers from Laurie's garden as a means of fundraising. Jo, dressed in a simple yet elegant gown, is seated at a rustic table adorned with an array of vibrant posies and bouquets. Her expressive face is filled with determination and focus as she engages with potential customers, who include men of various ages and backgrounds. The atmosphere is bustling with energy, as the fairgoers are drawn to the allure of the fresh flowers and the opportunity to support a worthy cause. The enchanting scene is a testament to the social fabric of the 19th century, where community events brought people together and fostered a sense of camaraderie. This evocative image, taken from Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the world of "Little Women," a timeless story of love, friendship, and the indomitable spirit of young women navigating their way through life.
