EDITORS COMMENTS
This delightful vintage photograph captures the joy and innocence of childhood as three children engage in the traditional game of 'Pick-a-Back' or 'Piggy Back' in the late 19th or early 20th century. The image, taken by the renowned English photographer Susan Beatrice Pearse, showcases the timeless charm of this simple yet entertaining pastime. The older boy, dressed in a crisp shirt and trousers, lifts his younger brother onto his back, while the third child, a girl, playfully clings to the boy's waist. Their faces are filled with laughter and excitement as they take turns playing the game. The natural setting of a grassy field and the open sky add to the sense of freedom and carelessness that comes with being a child. The game of Pick-a-Back, also known as 'Piggy Back' or 'Back-a-Back,' has been a popular children's activity for centuries. It involves one child carrying another on their back, often in a playful and competitive manner. This simple game not only provides physical exercise but also fosters social skills, teamwork, and a sense of camaraderie among children. Susan Beatrice Pearse (1865-1941) was a prolific English photographer who specialized in capturing candid moments of everyday life. Her work, which spanned over six decades, offers a fascinating glimpse into the history and culture of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This photograph of children playing Pick-a-Back is a testament to the enduring appeal of traditional games and the importance of cherishing the simple joys of childhood.
