Step into the enchanting world of summer pastimes as depicted in this Chiaroscuro print by the renowned silhouette artist, Captain H. L. Oakley, dated 1919. The top image transports us to the idyllic seaside, where a group of joyful individuals frolic in the sun and water, their silhouettes starkly contrasted against the brilliant sunshine. The second scene unfolds in a lush garden, where tennis matches are played under the dappled shade, and tea is enjoyed in deckchairs, the perfect combination of leisure and relaxation. In the third image, a graceful lady glides along the tranquil river, her silhouette casting a beautiful contrast against the sunlit water and the shaded banks. These scenes, filled with fun, sunshine, and shade, capture the essence of summertime in the 1920s, inviting us to bask in the lazy, idyllic pastimes of a bygone era.
