EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting winters of Detroit, Michigan, between 1890 and 1910. The scene captures a lively moment at Belle Isle, where skaters gracefully glide across the frozen lake. The Pavilion stands proudly in the background, its architectural facade glistening with a touch of grandeur from the Gilded Age. As we peer into this snapshot from history, we witness a community coming together to embrace the cold season's delights. Children and boys can be seen dotting the ice surface, their youthful energy adding an air of excitement to this frozen playground. Ice skating was not just a pastime; it was a cherished tradition that brought joy and camaraderie to all who participated. The image evokes nostalgia for simpler times when leisure activities were enjoyed without distractions or technology. It reminds us of childhood innocence and carefree moments spent outdoors amidst nature's wonders. Photography during this era beautifully captured slices of life like these, freezing them in time for future generations to appreciate. This particular photograph is part of an esteemed private collection but is available for public viewing due to its out-of-copyright status.
