Curly Locks - A 20th Century Courting Proposal
EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming photograph, titled "Curly Locks," captures a romantic moment from the early 20th century. The image features a man, dressed in a smart suit and hat, proposing to a woman with long, curly locks. She sits gracefully on a plush cushion, her hands delicately holding a plate of strawberries and a cup of cream. The man, with a hopeful expression, presents her with a ring and a bouquet of flowers. The scene is reminiscent of the nursery rhyme "Curly Locks, Curly Locks! Will thou be mine?" which describes a man courting a woman with curly hair. The rhyme goes on to promise her a life free from household chores, such as washing dishes or feeding swine. Instead, she is promised a life of leisure, filled with strawberries, sugar, and cream. The woman in the photograph embodies the spirit of this old rhyme, with her long, curly locks cascading down her back. Her elegant attire and refined posture suggest that she is a woman of refinement, who is accustomed to the finer things in life. The man, with his earnest expression and thoughtful gesture, is clearly smitten with her. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the romantic traditions of the past, when men would go to great lengths to win the hearts of their beloveds. It is a timeless image that continues to capture the imagination and inspire love and affection. The photograph is part of the Mary Evans Picture Library/Peter & Dawn Cope Collection, and is available for licensing and reproduction through Mary Evans Prints Online. It is not to be used for commercial purposes without permission.
