EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures the moment of a polite and respectful handshake between David and Mrs. Dennis, an interaction filled with warmth and camaraderie. The photograph, titled "Shaking Hands," is a beautiful example from the early 1900s, part of the Boswell Collection, and is labeled as "Trap to Catch a Sunbeam." The setting is simple yet intriguing, with a lantern and various objects in the background, suggesting an outdoor or perhaps a makeshift studio setting. The image exudes a sense of nostalgia, transporting us back in time to an era when such simple gestures held significant meaning. The clothing, the posture, and the expression on their faces all contribute to the authenticity and charm of this photograph. The man, David, is dressed in a formal suit and hat, while Mrs. Dennis dons a modest, high-collared dress and a bonnet. Their eyes are locked, and their hands are clasped firmly, conveying a sense of mutual respect and admiration. The title "Trap to Catch a Sunbeam" adds an element of mystery and intrigue to the image. It is unclear if this is a reference to the lantern or some other object in the scene, but it certainly adds to the overall allure of this fascinating photograph. Overall, this image is a testament to the power of human connection and the enduring appeal of a simple handshake.
