EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming photograph captures Miss Daubs, the artist's daughter, engaged in a playful game of "The Round Game of Happy Families" with an unseen companion around the year 1910. The serene setting of the image, with its soft lighting and muted color palette, transports us back to a simpler time. Miss Daubs, dressed in a long red mauve gown, exudes an air of sophistication and elegance. Her graceful posture and the gentle smile on her face suggest a sense of joy and contentment. The game of "Happy Families," a popular parlor card game during the 1910s, is spread out on the table before her. The cards, with their intricate designs and vibrant colors, add a touch of whimsy and playfulness to the scene. A potted lily plant sits in the background, its bloom adding a pop of color and a natural element to the composition. The artist, Chad Valley, skillfully captures the aestheticism and artistic sensibilities of the 1910s in this photograph. The use of soft focus, muted colors, and the emphasis on the beauty of everyday objects and activities reflect the artistic and aesthetic trends of the time. The image also highlights the importance of family and the simple pleasures of life, making it a timeless and enduring piece of art.
