**Elegance on Horseback: Mrs. C. Cecil Fitler in Plainfield**
This black-and-white photograph captures the essence of a bygone era as Mrs. C. Cecil Fitler, a stylish and confident rider, takes to the horse-drawn vehicle with poise and panache. Taken between 1910 and 1915 by Bain News Service, this portrait is not only a testament to her equestrian prowess but also an ode to the fashion of the time.
Mrs. Fitler's attire exudes elegance as she dons a stylish hat adorned with feathers or flowers (the exact details are lost in time) and wears a fitted dress that accentuates her figure. Her gloves, though not visible in this image, would have been another essential component of her ensemble, adding an air of sophistication to the overall look.
As president of the Plainfield Riding and Driving Club, Mrs. Fitler was undoubtedly well-versed in horse riding etiquette and technique. This photograph serves as a window into the world of early 20th-century America's upper echelons, where social standing was often tied to one's ability to ride horses with finesse.
The Bain News Service, founded by George Grantham Bain, played a significant role in capturing the essence of American life during this period. Their photographs not only documented historical events but also provided an intimate glimpse into the lives of everyday people like Mrs. Fitler, who embodied refinement and poise on horseback. This image is now part of Heritage Images' extensive collection, offering us a unique opportunity to step back in time and appreciate the beauty of a bygone era.
