EDITORS COMMENTS
Autumn's Harvest: A Scene of Childhood Delight in John Hassall's 'The Four Seasons, Autumn' (1902) Step into the idyllic world of John Hassall's 'The Four Seasons, Autumn,' a captivating photograph from the Edwardian era, now available through Mary Evans Picture Library. This enchanting image transports us to a simpler time, where children revel in the joys of the harvest season. The scene unfolds in an open, sunlit field, where the golden hues of autumn leaves blanket the ground. In the foreground, a group of children, dressed in their Sunday best, are having the time of their lives. They clamber and laugh as they playfully hide amongst a towering haystack, their faces flushed with excitement. Older boys and girls, armed with rakes and a ladder, attempt to collect the hay, adding to the playful chaos. The children's joyous energy is palpable, as they engage in a timeless autumnal tradition. The older children, with their focused expressions and determined postures, contrast beautifully with the younger ones, who revel in the simple pleasure of hiding in the hay. The tools of the harvest – rakes and a rack – lie nearby, adding authenticity to the scene. This photograph is a testament to the boundless joy and innocence of childhood, frozen in time within the beautiful, golden embrace of autumn. John Hassall's 'The Four Seasons, Autumn' is a must-have for those who cherish the beauty of the past and the simple pleasures of childhood.
