EDITORS COMMENTS
This image transports us back to the 1690s, specifically to the festivities of May Day in 1698. Two women, dressed in elegant, flowing garments, gracefully dance in a lively circle, their faces filled with joy and merriment. The intricate patterns of their dresses, adorned with lace and ribbons, swirl around them as they move in harmony. In the foreground, a man, focused intently, plays the fiddle, his fingers deftly plucking at the strings, producing a lively and infectious melody. The table before him is strewn with a book and other paraphernalia, suggesting that he is not only a musician but also a scholar or a man of letters. The scene exudes an atmosphere of leisure and relaxation, as the trio indulges in the simple pleasure of music and dance on this joyous May Day. The image, captured by an unknown photographer from the Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a tantalizing glimpse into the past, inviting us to imagine the sights, sounds, and sensations of this long-gone era.
