EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of the popular parlor game, "Isabella," as it was played in the early 1900s. In this image from Mary Evans Picture Library, a group of women have gathered around a circle, each one holding a ring in their hands. The woman in the middle, dressed in elegant turn-of-the-century attire, closes her eyes and carefully selects a ring from the circle. With a smile, she opens her eyes and the chosen woman, now her "sweetheart," joins her in the center. Together, they mime the actions of the song, their faces filled with joy and excitement. The game of "Isabella" was a favorite pastime during social gatherings in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The origins of the game are unclear, but it is believed to have originated in Europe and was brought to America by immigrants. The game's name may have come from the popular ballad, "Isabella, My Love," which was a common choice for the accompanying song. As the women played the game, they would form a circle, with one woman in the middle. Each woman would pass a ring through the circle, and the woman in the middle would choose the ring she liked best. The woman whose ring was chosen would then become her "sweetheart" for the duration of the game, and they would perform the actions of the song together. The game was a fun and playful way to bring people together and create a sense of community and connection. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, capturing the spirit of camaraderie and joy that came with playing games like "Isabella." It is a reminder of the simple pleasures and traditions that have been passed down through generations, and the enduring power of human connection.
