EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming photograph of two children engaging in a delightful game of 'Weighing Shops' from the late 19th century. Captured by an unidentified photographer and now available through Mary Evans Picture Library, this image offers a glimpse into the innocent joys of childhood during a bygone era. The photograph depicts a young girl, dressed in a long, flowing dress and apron, carefully weighing out an item on a makeshift scale for a boy, who stands eagerly by her side. The boy, dressed in a short-sleeved shirt and trousers, holds out a small bag, ready to receive the weighed item. The scene is set in a cozy, dimly lit room, with a wooden table and shelves filled with various household items and toys in the background. This photograph is a reminder of the simple pleasures and imaginative play that children found in the days before electronic devices and mass-produced toys. The game of 'Weighing Shops' was a popular pastime during the Victorian era, where children would set up makeshift shops in their homes and engage in role-playing activities, selling and buying goods from one another. The historical context of this photograph is further emphasized by the children's attire and the use of traditional weighing scales. The image transports us back to a time when life moved at a slower pace, and the simple act of playing shops was a source of endless entertainment and learning for children. This photograph is not only a delightful reminder of the past but also a testament to the enduring spirit of childhood and the power of imagination. It is a treasure trove of historical significance and a must-have for anyone interested in the social history of childhood and the Victorian era.
