Venturing across continents, Dutch skaters glided effortlessly across frozen waters on the Zuider Zee during the 1800s. Meanwhile, Somerset House in London assembled a seasonal ice rink that became a hub for skaters enjoying early evening sessions against a picturesque backdrop. But it's not just humans who embrace this art form; even dachshunds have been known to take to the ice. Jean-Baptiste-Sim captures their adorable antics on canvas, reminding us that joy can be found even in unexpected places. Lastly, let's not forget about our aquatic friends – skate, stingray, and thornback ray – who elegantly glide beneath ocean waves with unparalleled grace. Whether you're admiring historical depictions or lacing up your own skates today, there is something truly magical about this timeless pastime. So grab your blades and join countless others as we celebrate the beauty – both as an art form and exhilarating experience that transcends time itself.
