EDITORS COMMENTS
Skating Party, 1912" is a captivating photograph by Harris & Ewing, capturing the joy and excitement of a winter pastime in America during the early 1900s. The image showcases a group of men and children engaged in ice skating on a frozen body of water, surrounded by barren trees and a clear blue sky. The scene is filled with laughter and playfulness, as the skaters glide effortlessly on their ice skates, some even attempting daring spins and jumps. The photograph offers a glimpse into the fashion trends of the era, with the men dressed in bowler hats, long coats, and ties, while the children wear simple yet stylish dresses and knitted sweaters. The contrast between the formal attire of the adults and the playful clothing of the children adds to the charm of the image. The location of the skating party is not explicitly stated, but the absence of modern buildings and the rural setting suggest that it may have taken place in a small town or countryside area. The photograph is a precious addition to the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, which documents the everyday life and culture of America during the 20th century. The image is a full-length portrait, capturing the essence of the moment and the spirit of the season. The icy landscape, the laughter of the skaters, and the classic clothing make "Skating Party, 1912" a timeless piece of American heritage art.
