EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Joyous Gathering: Young Women Preserve Memories in Fancy Dress Costumes, c.1920" In this delightful photograph, a group of young women come together to celebrate and preserve a cherished moment in time. Dressed in an array of elaborate and fancy costumes, they embody the spirit of amusement and camaraderie that defined their youth. Three of the young women don variations on clown outfits, each adding their unique touch to the traditional Pierrot costume. The first wears a classic Pierrot suit with a white collar and red bow tie, while the second dons a more colorful version with a multi-hued collar and a red nose. The third, with a mischievous grin, sports a reversed collar and a red bow tie, playfully subverting the traditional Pierrot look. The fourth young woman, standing out amongst her friends, is dressed in an exotic national costume that bears the distinct markings of Russian origin. With a vibrant, embroidered skirt, intricate beadwork, and a flowing headscarf, she adds a touch of international flair to the otherwise predominantly European-inspired costumes. The women, with their laughter and joy, radiate a sense of happiness and friendship that transcends the passage of time. This photograph, taken in a studio around 1920, serves as a testament to their shared experiences and the enduring bond of their friendship.
