EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, taken from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back in time to the early 1900s, where a group of children are seen engaged in the traditional English folk dance, Maypole dancing. Dressed in Victorian and Edwardian attire, the boys and girls, with rosy cheeks and bright eyes, appear to be fully immersed in their playful activity. The Maypole dance is an ancient custom believed to have originated from pagan celebrations, symbolizing the return of spring and the triumph of life over death. In this photograph, the children, some appearing as urban urchins, are seen weaving colorful ribbons around the Maypole, their faces filled with joy and excitement. The setting of the scene is a quaint English street, with a lantern-lit background, adding to the nostalgic and romantic atmosphere of the image. The children's innocent and carefree expressions, coupled with their traditional attire, evoke a sense of nostalgia for a simpler time in history. The Maypole dance was a popular pastime for children during the Victorian and Edwardian eras, and this photograph serves as a beautiful reminder of the importance of play and tradition in childhood. The image is a testament to the enduring spirit of childhood, and the joy and wonder that can be found in the simplest of activities.
