EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing photograph, titled "Crazy Victorians," captures a lively moment of amusement among a group of individuals engaging in an unusual form of leapfrog during the late 19th century. The image, taken in 1898 by Otto Herschan, showcases the playful spirit and eccentricity of the Victorian era. The scene is set in a rustic, outdoor environment, with a lush tree in the background and a wooden plank serving as the launching pad for the leapfrog game. The participants, dressed in fashionable Victorian attire, display a range of expressions from focused determination to pure delight. Some wear straw hats, adding a touch of casual elegance to their outfits. The format of this portrait, captured in black and white, adds to the timeless quality of the photograph. The contrast between the formal clothing and the unconventional leapfrog game creates an amusing juxtaposition, highlighting the human capacity for finding enjoyment in the most unexpected ways. This photograph, from the Otto Herschan Collection, offers a unique glimpse into the past, inviting us to appreciate the lighter side of Victorian life. It serves as a reminder that, despite the passage of time and changing fashions, the human desire for amusement and connection remains constant.
