EDITORS COMMENTS
Sliding on Hampstead Heath 22 January 1917 captures a delightful winter scene in black and white. This monochrome photograph, taken by Alfieri in the early 20th century, transports us back to the snowy days of the nineteen tens. In this image, children and adults alike are seen enjoying themselves on the icy grounds of Hampstead Heath. Despite the biting cold weather, these individuals find solace in playful activities such as skating and sliding. Dressed in their uniforms, some men can be seen taking a break from duty or perhaps enjoying their leisure time while on leave. The frozen landscape provides an ideal setting for fun-filled moments that bring joy to both young and old. The crispness of the snow-covered ground adds to the overall charm of this snapshot from history. It is evident that even amidst challenging times during World War I, people found ways to entertain themselves and create lasting memories. This print offers a glimpse into a bygone era where simple pleasures were cherished. As we admire this image captured almost a century ago, it serves as a reminder of how important it is to embrace moments of playfulness and find happiness even in difficult circumstances.
