A Merry Snapdragon Game - Children and Grown-ups Playing at Snapdragon, 1874
EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, taken in 1874, showcases a lively and joyous scene of children and adults participating in the traditional English Christmas game of Snapdragon. The photograph, a testament to the rich history and customs of the holiday season, was captured by an anonymous photographer and is now available as a print from Mary Evans Prints Online. Snapdragon, a game that dates back to the 16th century, was a popular pastime during the Victorian era. The game involved placing a raisin-studded pudding, soaked in brandy, in a shallow dish and setting it alight. Players would then use their hands to pluck the raisins from the fiery pudding without burning themselves. The first player to successfully pluck a raisin from the dish and pop it into their mouth would then say "Snapdragon," and the next player would have to attempt the same feat. In this photograph, we see a group of children and adults gathered around a table, their faces filled with excitement and anticipation as they prepare to take their turns at the Snapdragon game. The room is filled with the warm, inviting glow of candles, and the aroma of the brandy-soaked pudding wafts through the air. The children, dressed in their finest holiday attire, are eagerly watching their elders as they take their turns, no doubt hoping to be the one to claim the coveted title of Snapdragon champion. This image not only captures the spirit of Christmas traditions but also highlights the importance of community and intergenerational bonding during the holiday season. The Snapdragon game, with its element of danger and excitement, brought families and friends together in a shared experience of laughter, camaraderie, and the joy of the season.
