At the Seventy Yards: A Scene from a Ladies' Archery Match in 1901 (Mary Evans Prints Online) This photograph, taken in the year 1901, portrays an engaging moment from a ladies' archery match. The setting is idyllic, with the sun casting a warm glow over the lush, green landscape. The women, dressed in elegant Edwardian attire, are fully immersed in the sport, their determined expressions and focused gazes reflecting their commitment and skill. Archery was a popular pastime for ladies in the early 1900s, and this image offers a glimpse into the social and recreational activities of the time. The ladies are gathered at the seventy-yard mark, a significant distance in archery, and are poised to release their arrows with precision and grace. The round club, a traditional target used in archery, can be seen in the foreground, its bullseye a testament to the accuracy required in this ancient sport. The tranquil atmosphere of the scene is further emphasized by the serene expression of the lady in the foreground, who has just released her arrow. Her calm demeanor and the gentle breeze that rustles her skirt create a sense of harmony and balance, making this photograph a beautiful representation of the elegance and grace of Edwardian ladies at play. This photograph is a delightful reminder of a bygone era, when leisurely pursuits such as archery brought people together in a shared appreciation for the simple pleasures of life. The image invites us to reflect on the enduring appeal of sports and the joy they bring to individuals and communities.
