Snapdragon, 1850 - Sixteen Children and Two Grown-ups Play at this Christmas Custom
EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, taken in 1850, depicts a lively and joyful scene of sixteen children and two grown-ups engaged in the traditional Christmas game of Snapdragon. The photograph, from Mary Evans Prints Online, captures the essence of holiday cheer and the simple pleasures of Victorian-era entertainment. Snapdragon, a popular game during the 19th century, was typically played around the Christmas season. The game involved placing raisins or sultanas in a shallow dish, soaking them in brandy or other alcohol, and setting the dish on fire. Players would then use their hands to pluck the raisins from the dish while avoiding the flames. The first player to successfully pick up a raisin and eat it without burning their fingers would then blow out the flame and pass the dish to the next player. In this photograph, the children and grown-ups are fully immersed in the game, their faces filled with excitement and determination. The adults, dressed in their finest Victorian attire, watch over the children with a mix of amusement and concern. The room is warmly lit, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The table is strewn with discarded raisins, evidence of the game's intensity. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a window into the customs and traditions of the Victorian era. It reminds us of the importance of community, family, and the simple joys of holiday celebrations. The image is a reminder that, despite the passage of time, the spirit of the season remains constant – a time for coming together, sharing food, and making memories.
