EDITORS COMMENTS
is an evocative photograph that captures the essence of a simpler time in American history. The image, created by an unknown photographer, depicts a group of men engaged in leisure activities on the shores of Ormond Beach, Volusia County, Florida. The date of this photograph is estimated to be between 1900 and 1910, a period when the United States was undergoing rapid industrialization and urbanization. The photograph shows three men in casual attire, two of whom are sailing a small boat near the water's edge, while the third man rides a bicycle along the sandy beach. The sailing boat, with its triangular sail and wooden hull, appears to be a popular sailing cycle or dinghy, a common mode of transportation and recreation during that era. The men's relaxed demeanor and the tranquil seaside setting convey a sense of freedom and enjoyment, making it an ideal representation of the leisure activities that defined the American holiday experience during the early 20th century. This photograph is a testament to the country's rich heritage and the diverse range of pastimes that defined the era. The image, which is part of the Library of Congress' extensive collection, is a dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in, and its monochromatic color palette adds to its timeless appeal. The photograph's composition, with the men and their activities set against the backdrop of the vast, open sea, invites viewers to imagine the sights, sounds, and sensations of a bygone era. Overall, "Sailing on the Beach, Ormond, Fla. between 1900 and 1910" is a captivating snapshot of American history and a reminder of the simple pleasures that continue to define our connection to the natural world.
