Waiting in Anticipation - A Glimpse into the St. Paul Ice Carnival, 1886/88
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This albumen print, captured by renowned photographer Henry Hamilton Bennett, transports us back to a frosty winter's day in the late 19th century. The scene unfolds at the entrance of a grand palace, where an eager crowd eagerly awaits the arrival of none other than the Royal family. The atmosphere is palpable as men donning their finest coats and hats stand alongside majestic horses drawing elegant carriages through icy streets. Their breath visible in the chilly air adds to the sense of anticipation that hangs thickly around them. Bennett's expert use of photography accentuates every detail - from fur coats protecting against biting winds to intricate horse-drawn vehicles adorned with ornate embellishments. The frozen landscape serves as a stark backdrop for this momentous occasion. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported to an era when such events were cherished opportunities for communities to come together and celebrate amidst wintry splendor. It offers us a glimpse into both American history and cultural traditions that have shaped our nation. This remarkable photograph captures not only a specific event but also embodies themes of unity, excitement, and admiration for royalty. It stands as a testament to Bennett's skillful artistry and his ability to immortalize moments that continue to resonate with viewers over a century later.
