Down by the Sea - The Catch of the Season - A Pesky Crab Bites the Toe of a Late Victorian/Early Edwardian Lady
EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming and humorous photograph captures a moment of surprise and amusement during a leisurely day at the seaside. Dressed in fashionable attire of the late Victorian/early Edwardian era, three holidaymakers enjoy a paddle through the rockpools. The woman in the center, with a playful expression on her face, dips her toes into the cool water. However, her carefree moment is suddenly disrupted as a mischievous crab, hidden among the rocks, nips at her toe with its sharp claw. Her two companions react with a mixture of concern, sympathy, and amusement. One woman reaches out to comfort her friend, while the other tries to hide her laughter behind a hand. The woman's shocked expression and the redness of her toe attest to the painful surprise. The crab, having achieved its goal, scurries back into its hiding place, leaving the women to share a laugh at the unexpected turn of events. This photograph, taken circa 1902, offers a glimpse into the history of seaside holidays during the early 1900s. The elegant skirts and rolled trousers of the women, as well as their paddles and pails, are reminiscent of the popular pastime of paddling in the rockpools. The scene exudes a sense of fun and comedy, making it a delightful addition to any collection of historical photographs.
