EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming 20th century photograph, we find a group of children engaged in a lively game of battledore and shuttlecock in a sun-drenched field. The image, titled "H Miller: Battledore & Shuttlecock (Children playing battledore and shuttlecock in a field)," is part of the Peter & Dawn Cope Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library. Battledore and shuttlecock is an ancient game that dates back to the Roman Empire. It is believed to have originated as a training exercise for soldiers, who would use a flat piece of wood, or battledore, to hit a small, light object, or shuttlecock, back and forth. Over time, the game evolved into a popular pastime for children, who would play it in open fields and courtyards. In this photograph, we see a group of children, dressed in simple, turn-of-the-century clothing, gathered around a young girl named Hilda, who is poised to hit the shuttlecock with her battledore. The other children watch intently, some with expressions of excitement and anticipation, others with looks of determination and focus. The field behind them is dotted with wildflowers and tall grasses, adding a picturesque backdrop to the scene. The children's joy and enthusiasm are palpable in this image, making it a delightful reminder of simpler times and the innocent pleasures of childhood. The soft light and natural setting further enhance the sense of tranquility and beauty, making it a truly captivating and timeless photograph. Whether used as a conversation starter, a decorative piece, or simply as a source of inspiration, "H Miller: Battledore & Shuttlecock (Children playing battledore and shuttlecock in a field)" is a must-have addition to any collection.
