Bunhill Cheery Doyle Families Games
EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming photograph, taken in the late 1890s, captures the joy and merriment of a cheerful family gathering in a Victorian-era setting. The image, published by the Thomas De La Rue & Co. in London, depicts a group of families playing a game of cards in Bunhill Row. The design on the back of the card adds to the overall appeal, featuring a lush green landscape with black outlines, reminiscent of the intricate designs commonly found on Victorian-era playing cards. The families, dressed in their Sunday best, appear to be fully engaged in the game, with smiles and laughter abounding. The father, seated at the head of the table, looks proudly at his wife and children as they eagerly participate. The children, with rosy cheeks and bright eyes, seem to be having the time of their lives, while their mother looks on with a warm and contented expression. The setting, with its simple yet elegant decor and cozy atmosphere, transports us back in time to an era of family values, happiness, and simple pleasures. The use of natural colors and the attention to detail in the clothing and surroundings further enhance the authenticity of the scene. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the importance of family, friendship, and the simple joys of life. It is a treasure from the past that continues to resonate with us today, as we strive to cherish the moments we have with our loved ones and find joy in the everyday.
