Five o'clock tea at the club house, Virginia Hot Springs, between 1910 and 1920: A Timeless Tradition of Leisure and Camaraderie This evocative photograph captures a scene of Five o'clock tea at the club house of Virginia Hot Springs, a popular resort destination in Bath County, Virginia, between 1910 and 1920. The image, a dry plate glass negative measuring 8 x 10 inches, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a simpler time of relaxation and socializing. The club house, an elegant and stately building, stands proudly in the foreground, its white columns and red-roofed veranda framing the scene. The lush, green lawn stretches out before it, dotted with ladies in long, flowing skirts and gentlemen in suits, all gathered around tables set with fine china and delicate teacups. The sun casts a warm, golden light over the scene, adding to the idyllic atmosphere. Virginia Hot Springs was a popular destination for those seeking the health benefits of the natural hot springs, as well as a chance to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Members of the club would gather for afternoon tea, a cherished pastime, to socialize, catch up on the latest news, and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. This photograph, from the vast collection of the Library of Congress, offers a unique window into the past, showcasing a time when leisure and relaxation were prized, and the simple pleasure of sharing a pot of tea with friends was a cherished tradition.
