ATLANTIC CITY, 1890 - A Glimpse into the Elegance of the Gilded Age
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This wood engraving takes us back to Atlantic City in 1890, where a scene of refined leisure unfolds. As we peer into this snapshot of history, we witness a group of men and women indulging in the simple pleasure of watching the tide roll in along the shores of New Jersey. The artist W. P. Snyder masterfully captures the essence of this era with meticulous detail. The upper-class figures are adorned in fashionable attire that epitomizes late American fashion trends. Men don stylish hats while women flaunt elegant head dresses and parasols, shielding themselves from the sun's rays as they enjoy their seaside retreat. Amidst this gathering stands an equestrian rider on horseback, exuding an air of sophistication and grace. The presence of a wheel chair hints at inclusivity even during those times when accessibility was not widely prioritized. The boardwalk stretches out before them, providing a pathway for strolling and socializing. The Atlantic Ocean glistens under clear skies, reflecting both serenity and grandeur. In this glimpse into daily life during America's Gilded Age, we are transported to an era defined by opulence and refinement. This print serves as a testament to how society embraced leisurely pursuits amidst natural beauty – capturing moments that transcend time itself.
