EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating and bucolic portrait of a young girl named Emily Mitchell, later known as Emily Stride, immersed in the rustic charm of the Victorian era. The photograph, taken around the turn of the 20th century, depicts Emily in a simple yet elegant white bonnet, her eyes closed in delight as she inhales the sweet fragrance of a large bunch of lavender in her hands. The pastoral setting, with its lush greenery and idyllic countryside backdrop, further emphasizes the sense of tranquility and innocence that pervades the image. Emily Stride, who later married and became Mrs. Stride, embodies the essence of a young woman in harmony with nature. The soft focus and warm tones of the photograph add to the dreamlike quality of the scene, transporting the viewer to a simpler time. The sweet-smelling lavender, a symbol of relaxation and calmness, adds to the overall allure of the image. This photograph is a testament to the enduring beauty of the past and the timeless appeal of the simple pleasures of rural life. With its charming composition and evocative subject matter, "Sweet Lavender" is a must-have for any collection of Victorian art or for those who appreciate the beauty and elegance of a bygone era.
