EDITORS COMMENTS
Notes on Etiquette - Greeted with a Kiss: A Warm Welcome in 1908 In this charming photograph from 1908, titled "Notes on Etiquette - Greeted with a Kiss," we witness a heartfelt greeting between two friends or acquaintances. The image captures the moment of their reunion, as one visitor warmly embraces the other, planting a kiss on their cheek. The scene exudes a sense of warmth and familiarity, as if to suggest that nothing more readily conduces to a pleasant visit than a kindly, hearty greeting. The photograph is reminiscent of a bygone era, where reserve and friendliness coexisted in a delicate balance. The British culture of the time placed great importance on etiquette and decorum, yet this image shows that even the most formal of greetings could be infused with a touch of warmth and affection. The image features a visibly surprised and startled housemaid in the background, who appears to have been taken aback by the unexpected display of affection. Her expression of alarm or even shock is a stark contrast to the friendly and forward advance of the visitors. The red color palette of their outfits further adds to the vibrancy and energy of the scene. Despite the potential for overly formal or even shocking greetings, the image conveys a sense of ease and comfort, as if to remind us that even the most unexpected encounters can be filled with warmth and connection. This photograph is a delightful reminder of the power of a kind and heartfelt greeting, and the enduring importance of etiquette in our interactions with others.
