EDITORS COMMENTS
Thirteen at Table: The Hostess's Ultimate Nightmare (THIRTEEN AT TABLE - the hostess's ultimate nightmare! Date: 1925) is an intriguing and captivating image that transports us back in time to an era of folklore and superstition. In this photograph, thirteen people are gathered around a table, their faces illuminated by the warm glow of candles. The year is 1925, yet the scene could easily be mistaken for an older time, as the air of anticipation and unease hangs heavy over the room. The number thirteen has long been considered unlucky in Western folklore, and the belief that it brings misfortune or disaster to those who invite or are present at a table with thirteen people is a common superstition. The hostess in this photograph, dressed elegantly in the fashion of the time, appears to be trying to maintain her composure, but her anxious expression gives away her inner turmoil. Despite the superstition, the guests seem to be enjoying themselves, engaged in conversation and laughter. The table is set with fine china, crystal glasses, and silverware, suggesting that this is a special occasion. Yet, the hostess cannot shake off the feeling of unease, her mind filled with tales of misfortune that have befallen those who have dared to invite thirteen guests to their table. As we gaze at this hauntingly beautiful image, we cannot help but wonder what lies in store for this group of thirteen. Will they defy the superstition and enjoy a night of merriment, or will the unlucky number thirteen bring about their downfall? The answer lies in the pages of history, but the mystery and intrigue of this photograph will continue to captivate us for generations to come.
