A Moment of Focus: Billiardist Morningstar at the Pool Table, Early 1900s This photograph, sourced from Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back in time to an era of elegance and refinement - the early 1900s. The image features a focused and determined billiardist, identified as Morningstar, as he prepares to take a shot at the pool table. The serene atmosphere of the room, adorned with ornate woodwork and intricate detailing, adds to the sense of sophistication and leisurely indulgence. Billiards, a popular pastime during this period, was considered a sport for the elite and the well-heeled. The game required not only skill and precision but also a certain level of finesse and etiquette. Morningstar, with his carefully positioned cue and intense concentration, embodies the essence of the billiardist's art. As he stands poised at the table, Morningstar's attire - a crisp shirt, neatly tied cravat, and well-tailored trousers - speaks volumes about the social status and the era's sartorial sensibilities. The photograph, with its intriguing subject and evocative setting, offers a glimpse into the history of billiards and the culture of leisurely pursuits that defined the early 1900s. This image, a testament to the rich history of billiards and the billiardists of yesteryears, is an invaluable addition to any collection that seeks to explore the social, cultural, and historical significance of this iconic sport.
