EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming photograph, titled 'Three Very Small Children Decorate their Nursery,' captures a sweet moment in time from the late 19th century. Dressed in their Sunday best, three young children enthusiastically engage in the festive activity of decorating their nursery for Christmas. The image, taken circa 1870, offers a glimpse into the customs and traditions of the past, as well as the innocence and joy of childhood. The children, with rosy cheeks and bright eyes, are surrounded by a bounty of seasonal decorations. A garland of holly and ivy adorns the mantelpiece, while paper chains hang from the ceiling, adding a cheerful touch to the room. The children's small hands carefully place ornaments on the tree, their faces filled with excitement and pride. The tree, adorned with handmade paper ornaments, candles, and glass baubles, is the centerpiece of their decorating efforts. The nursery, with its cozy fireplace, wooden toys, and soft textiles, exudes a warm and inviting atmosphere. The children's clothing, consisting of long dresses and knitted sweaters, reflects the fashion of the time. The photograph also provides a glimpse into the domestic life of the past, as the children's mother or caregiver looks on approvingly from the background. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the simple joys of childhood and the traditions that bring families together during the holiday season. It also offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of Christmas decorating customs and the role that children played in the festivities.
