EDITORS COMMENTS
The Return" is a captivating photograph by Ethel Parkinson, capturing a heartwarming moment from the past during the winter of 1906. The scene unfolds as three children, bundled up against the cold, make their way home with a large log for the holiday season. Two girls, dressed in hats and coats, pull the heavy trunk of wood along the snowy ground, while a smaller girl sits atop the log, cradling her cherished doll. Their little dog trots alongside them, adding to the joy and excitement of the moment. The children's faces are filled with determination and anticipation, as they bring the log back to their home to fuel the fire and provide warmth during the harsh winter months. The large log, with its rough, textured bark, stands in stark contrast to the delicate porcelain doll held by the youngest girl, highlighting the contrast between the harshness of nature and the tender nurturing instincts of the children. This historical photograph, brought to us by Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the past and invites us to reflect on the simple pleasures and hardships of everyday life during the early 20th century. The image is a poignant reminder of the importance of family, community, and the simple joys of the holiday season, making it a cherished addition to any collection of historical or winter-themed photographs. As we admire the beauty and depth of this photograph, we are transported back in time, allowing us to appreciate the rich history and traditions that have shaped our world.
