EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting scene from 1912, captured in The Sphere Christmas Number, transports us back in time to an Edwardian winter garden. Children in traditional fashions of the era are building a snowman, their joy undimmed by the cold. The boy, dressed in an Eton collar and knickerbocker suit, wears a tam-o-shanter hat, while his sister dons a sailor suit, black stockings, and button boots. In the background, their parents return from a shopping expedition, their Rolls Royce Silver Ghost gleaming in the snow. The elegance of the Rolls Royce, a symbol of wealth and status in the early 20th century, contrasts beautifully with the simple pleasure of the children's snowman-building. This nostalgic image, published in 1912 but reprinted in 1961, evokes a sense of wonder and longing for a bygone era. The children's innocent delight in the snow and the elegance of their parents' return from a shopping trip are a poignant reminder of the contrasts and charms of the Edwardian era. This image, from the extensive archive of Mary Evans Prints Online, is a must-have for anyone interested in the history of fashion, childhood, or the Edwardian period.
