EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph, titled "The Sleigh" by Charles Robinson, captures the innocence and joy of childhood during the Edwardian era. Dated 1906, the image showcases a creative use of a wheelbarrow transformed into a makeshift sleigh. The wheels have been removed, and the bottom lined with straw for added comfort. A young girl, bundled up in a hat and coat, stands up in the sleigh, her face filled with excitement as she holds on tight. Two other children pull her along, their own hats bobbing up and down as they navigate the snowy slope. The scene takes place on a hillside covered in a fresh blanket of snow, adding to the wintery charm. The simple pleasure of riding in a sleigh, pulled by friends, is a cherished memory for many, and this photograph beautifully encapsulates that feeling. The children's laughter and the crunch of snow underfoot add to the magical atmosphere, making this image a timeless representation of the holiday season.
