EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph captures the essence of the Ruskin May Festival at Whitelands College, Chelsea, held in 1889. The annual May Day celebration was a cherished tradition that brought together the community to celebrate the arrival of spring. At the heart of the festivities was the selection of a May Queen, who embodied the beauty and grace of the season. In this image, the May Queen is resplendent in a stunning gown designed by the renowned English illustrator, Kate Greenaway. Greenaway was a leading figure in the arts and crafts movement, known for her whimsical and intricately detailed illustrations. Her designs were celebrated for their romantic and nostalgic qualities, making her an ideal choice for the May Queen's attire. The dress itself is a testament to the exquisite craftsmanship of the time. The voluminous skirt is adorned with delicate floral patterns, while the bodice is adorned with intricate lace and beading. The Queen's headdress is adorned with fresh flowers and foliage, adding to the ethereal quality of the scene. The Ruskin May Festival was an important custom in the community, and the selection of the May Queen was a highlight of the day. The event brought together people of all ages and backgrounds to celebrate the beauty of nature and the joys of spring. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the enduring power of tradition and the magic of the May Day celebrations of the past.
