EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming postcard image captures the essence of a carefree day at the seaside in the early 20th century. Two pretty bathing belles, Mittie and Mildred, are seen enjoying a frolic in the crystal-clear waters of the sea. The year is circa 1908, and the location is likely a popular beach resort in Europe or the American East Coast. In the background, several bathing machines can be seen lined up along the shore. These horses-drawn contraptions were used to provide privacy for women as they changed into their swimming costumes before entering the water. The use of bathing machines was a common practice during this era, as bathing in public was considered immodest for women. The bathing belles in this photograph exude a sense of joy and freedom, their laughter carried away on the gentle breeze. The sun shines down on them, casting a warm glow over the scene. It is easy to imagine the sound of the waves crashing against the shore, the feel of the cool water against their skin, and the salty tang in the air. This image offers a glimpse into a bygone era, a time when life moved at a slower pace, and simple pleasures like a day at the beach were cherished. The historical significance of this photograph lies in its ability to transport us back in time, allowing us to experience a moment in history through the eyes of these two pretty bathing belles.
