EDITORS COMMENTS
Ironing Day" by Ethel Parkinson is a charming and nostalgic depiction of a simple moment in Dutch history, capturing the innocence and playfulness of childhood. The photograph, taken in 1915, shows a young girl sitting on a wooden bench, focused intently on the task of ironing a wrinkled sheet. Her expression is serious, her brow furrowed in concentration. But just as she is about to press down on the hot iron, a mischievous little boy approaches from behind, wrapping his arms around her waist and attempting to steal a kiss. The girl looks surprised and slightly annoyed, but there is a hint of a smile playing at the corners of her mouth. The boy, with a look of pure joy on his face, seems oblivious to the fact that he is interrupting her work. The iron and ironing basket are present in the scene, but they take a backseat to the heartwarming interaction between the two children. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when life was simpler, and children had the freedom to explore and play without the distractions of modern technology. It is a reminder of the importance of cherishing the little moments in life, even when they come with a few wrinkles and unexpected interruptions. Ethel Parkinson, a talented photographer, expertly captured this moment in time, preserving it for future generations to enjoy and reflect upon. Her ability to convey the essence of childhood and the complexities of human emotion through her lens continues to inspire and delight viewers to this day.
