1881 Accompanies Hymn Hymns Mama Piano Singing
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Hymns Round Piano: Mama accompanies her children and their father in hymn-singing at the piano," is an enchanting glimpse into the past, captured in 1881 by an unidentified photographer and made available through Mary Evans Picture Library. The image portrays a heartwarming moment of family bonding and religious devotion. The scene is set in a cozy, dimly lit parlor, with the focus on the round piano in the center. The father sits at the piano, his hands poised above the keys, ready to play the hymns that will accompany his wife's voice and those of their children. The mother, dressed in a modest, high-necked blouse and long skirt, sits on a bench next to her husband, her arms wrapped around her youngest child, who rests on her lap. The other children, dressed in their Sunday best, sit on the floor around the piano, their eyes closed in concentration as they sing along. The round piano, a popular choice for Victorian homes due to its compact size and ability to be played from all sides, serves as the focal point of the gathering. The family's faces are illuminated by the soft glow of the lamp on the piano, creating an intimate and warm atmosphere. The image captures the essence of family, faith, and the simple joys of music and song. This photograph is a precious reminder of the importance of family and the role that music plays in bringing people together. It also offers a glimpse into the daily life and religious practices of families during the Victorian era. The image is not only a beautiful work of art but also a valuable historical document that captures a moment in time that has been lost to history.
