EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, taken in 1907 and sourced from Mary Evans Picture Library, captures the essence of Edwardian American masculinity. The father, dressed in a smart Chesterfield overcoat with a plush velvet collar and a bowler hat, exudes an air of sophistication and authority. His son, wearing a Varsity overcoat with a fry-front design and also donning a bowler hat, mirrors his father's style but with a youthful energy. The father's Chesterfield overcoat, a classic design that originated in England in the 1820s, was a popular choice for American gentlemen in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The velvet collar added an extra touch of luxury and elegance, making it a must-have item for the well-dressed man. The son's Varsity overcoat, with its distinctive fry-front design, was a more casual alternative to the Chesterfield. The fry-front, which featured a notched lapel that extended down the front of the coat, was a popular style among students, particularly those attending Ivy League universities. Both father and son are shown in a gun shop, suggesting that they are preparing for a hunting trip or perhaps purchasing weapons for other purposes. The presence of the rifles adds an element of adventure and excitement to the scene. Despite the passage of time, this photograph transports us back to an era of American history when men took pride in their appearance and enjoyed the simple pleasures of the great outdoors. The father-son dynamic is also a poignant reminder of the intergenerational bond between fathers and sons and the importance of passing down traditions and values from one generation to the next.
