Blouse Candid Flowerbed Poses Posing Shirt Skirt Student Suburban
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming photograph from the early 1910s, a young female student takes a moment of respite in a beautiful suburban garden. Dressed in the fashion of the time, she wears a long-sleeved white blouse and a dark skirt, the hem of which just brushes the top of the flowerbed where she sits. Her hair is styled in a neat bob, and she gazes off into the distance with a thoughtful expression. The garden is filled with vibrant blooms, including roses, tulips, and daisies, which add a burst of color to the scene. The lush greenery and delicate flowers create a serene and idyllic setting, a stark contrast to the bustling streets and industrialization that were becoming more common in urban areas during this period. This candid image offers a glimpse into the life of a young woman in the early 20th century, a time when education was becoming more accessible to women, and the role of women in society was beginning to shift. The student's pose suggests a sense of freedom and independence, as she takes a break from her studies to enjoy the simple pleasures of nature. The photograph is part of the Grenville Collins Postcard Collection, which was compiled by Tom Gillmor and is now available through Mary Evans Prints Online. The collection offers a rich and diverse range of historical images, providing valuable insights into social history and the everyday lives of people from the past. This photograph, in particular, offers a charming and nostalgic glimpse into the world of a young female student in the early 1910s.
