EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the past with this image of a Keep Fit gymnastics class in action at Bournville Village, circa late Victorian to early Edwardian era. The scene unfolds in an open-air setting, with the sun casting long, dappled shadows across the lush, green grass. The gymnasts, dressed in fitted bodices and bloomers, display impressive agility and grace as they perform various exercises on a wooden apparatus. The idyllic backdrop of Bournville Village adds to the charm of the photograph. Established by George Cadbury in 1895, Bournville was a model village designed to provide a healthy and harmonious living environment for its residents. The presence of the Keep Fit gymnastics class is a testament to the community's commitment to wellness and physical fitness. The vintage lantern slide, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back in time, allowing us to witness a moment of everyday life from over a century ago. The image is further enhanced by the presence of a chocolate factory in the background, a nod to the Cadbury's factory that was an integral part of the Bournville community. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the beauty and elegance of Keep Fit gymnastics during the late Victorian and early Edwardian eras. It serves as a reminder of the enduring importance of health, fitness, and community, making it a timeless treasure for history enthusiasts and fitness aficionados alike.
