Ring O' Roses - A Timeless Autumnal Tradition: Six Children Engaged in the Circle Game of Ring O' Roses, 1881, by Mary Evans Picture Library This evocative photograph, captured in the year 1881, presents an enchanting scene of six children frolicking in a circle during a crisp autumn day. The setting is idyllic, with the vibrant hues of fall leaves surrounding them, and a quaint windmill standing tall in the background. The children, dressed in their Sunday best, appear to be fully immersed in the joyous game of Ring O' Roses. Ring O' Roses, also known as Ring Around the Rosie, is an age-old ring game that has been passed down through generations. The origins of this game are steeped in history, with various theories suggesting its origins may date back to the Great Plague of London in 1665. Regardless of its origins, the game has remained a cherished tradition, providing endless entertainment for children for centuries. The children in this photograph are seen holding hands, forming a circle, and swaying to the rhythm of an unheard melody. Their faces are filled with delight and pure joy, as they eagerly anticipate their turn to step into the center of the circle. The simple pleasures of nature, the company of friends, and the innocence of childhood are all encapsulated in this image. As the wind gently rustles the leaves, the children's laughter echoes through the air, creating a symphony of happiness that transcends time. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring power of tradition and the simple joys of childhood.
