A Matter of Taste
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating turn-of-the-century photograph that showcases the charming contrast between two boating enthusiasts, each savoring their preferred beverage in their own unique way. The scene unfolds on the tranquil riverbank, where a portly older gentleman sits in the foreground, a whiskey and soda in hand, his expression reflecting the contentment that comes with a well-loved drink. His wife, seated behind him, gazes out at the serene water with a cup of elegantly brewed tea in her hands. The couple's focus on their individual tastes creates an atmosphere of quiet relaxation and companionship. The image is reminiscent of a scene from a Thackeray novel, with the gentlemen's punt gently bobbing on the water and the summer sun casting dappled light through the trees. The older man's drink is artfully arranged on the boat seat, with a slice of lime peeking out from the rim of his glass and a bottle of soda within reach. His wife's tea set, complete with a syphon and delicate cups, is nestled in a wicker basket at her feet. The photograph, taken circa 1906, captures the essence of a summer afternoon spent on the water, where the simple pleasure of a well-prepared drink can bring joy and companionship to even the most ordinary moments. The contrasting tastes of the couple serve as a reminder that everyone has their own preferences and that there is beauty in the diversity of experiences. This evocative image, from the Mary Evans / Grenville Collins Postcard Collection, invites us to appreciate the small moments of life and the unique ways in which we savor them.
