EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Three girls play at shadows: the eldest sister makes the shape of a swan with her hands," dates back to circa 1890 and is a beautiful example of a historical pastime enjoyed by children during that era. The image, sourced from Mary Evans Picture Library, transports us back in time, inviting us to witness a simple yet enchanting moment in the lives of these young sisters. The eldest sister, dressed in a long, flowing skirt and blouse, gracefully manipulates her hands to create the elegant form of a swan, casting its shadow onto the wall behind them. Her two younger sisters, dressed similarly, watch in awe, their eyes fixed on the shadow, as if mesmerized by the magical transformation. The soft, natural light filtering through the window adds to the ethereal quality of the scene, creating a sense of tranquility and wonder. Shadow play, an ancient form of entertainment and storytelling, was a popular pastime for children in the late 19th century. Using their hands, or in some cases, an intricately designed screen, they would create intricate shapes and figures, bringing stories to life through the art of projection. This photograph captures the essence of this simple yet captivating game, offering a glimpse into the lives of children during a time when imagination and creativity reigned supreme. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the universal language of play and the power of imagination to transport us to other worlds, even in the most ordinary of settings. This photograph is not only a testament to the rich history of childhood games but also a reminder of the enduring power of the human spirit to find joy and wonder in the simplest of things.
