1885 Bathing Croquet Picnic Swim Swimming Wear
EDITORS COMMENTS
A Summer's Day at the German Seaside, 1885: A captivating snapshot of leisurely pursuits and elegant attire, this photograph by Illustrated London News Ltd, taken in the year 1885, transports us back in time to a picturesque German seaside scene. The image showcases a group of women, dressed in the height of Victorian fashion, engaged in various summer activities. In the foreground, a woman in a voluminous, high-necked dress and a large sun hat, is playing croquet with great concentration, her companion looking on with a smile. Nearby, another woman, dressed in a stylish, ankle-length bathing costume, is enjoying a refreshing swim in the clear blue waters. A child, clad in a simple linen dress and a sun hat, plays in the sand, while another, dressed in a knitted bathing suit, splashes in the shallows. The women's clothing, with its intricate patterns, lace trims, and vibrant colors, is a testament to the elegance and sophistication of the era. The men, who can be seen in the background, are dressed in formal attire, complete with top hats and canes, as they engage in a lively discussion. The scene is set against a backdrop of a quaint seaside town, with colorful houses, a pier, and a bustling beach. The image captures the essence of a leisurely summer day at the seaside, where the simple pleasures of life, such as playing croquet, having a picnic, and taking a dip in the sea, were cherished and enjoyed to the fullest.
