EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the graceful Miss Megn Taylor as she performs a mesmerizing "fade away" on ice. Taken by an esteemed European photographer in the 19th century, this image is now part of a private collection. Miss Megn Taylor's elegant movements showcase both her skill as a skater and her inherent beauty. The photograph was originally featured as an illustration for Manfred Curry's book, "The Beauty of Skating" published in 1935 by John Miles. It is credited to Sport and General, London. In this historical snapshot, we witness the artistry of figure skating intertwined with the charm of vintage aesthetics. As Miss Megn Taylor glides effortlessly across the icy surface, she embodies not only grace but also represents an idealized notion of beauty during that era. The composition exudes nostalgia and transports us back to a time when winter sports were celebrated for their elegance and performance value. This image serves as a testament to the enduring allure of ice skating throughout history. With its rich history and cultural significance, this print from Bridgeman Images invites us to appreciate not just the physicality of skating but also its artistic expression through dance-like choreography. It reminds us that even in frozen landscapes, beauty can flourish with every glide and twirl on skates.
