Dressing for the Ball, c. 1900
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating sepia print that takes us back to the belle epoque era of the early 20th century. This mesmerizing image, captured by H. C. White Company in Vermont, USA, offers a glimpse into the preparations and anticipation surrounding an elegant ball. The photograph showcases a group of young women meticulously getting ready for the grand event. They are depicted in various stages of dressing, with their graceful figures adorned in corsets and layers of petticoats. The attention to detail is evident as they carefully adjust their lingerie and underwear before donning their exquisite gowns. Stereoscopic cards like this one were immensely popular during this time period. Comprising two photographs mounted on board, these cards provided viewers with a unique 3D experience when viewed through a stereoscope. This particular image captures not only the physical act of preparation but also conveys an atmosphere charged with excitement and anticipation. One can almost feel the palpable energy as these young women transform themselves into ethereal beauties fit for a ballroom dance. As we admire this prismatic picture from our private collection today, it serves as both a nostalgic reminder of past elegance and an invitation to imagine ourselves stepping into those long-gone days where such grand events held great significance in society's social calendar.
