EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph, titled "The Four Seasons, Spring" by John Hassall, captures the essence of childhood joy and the vibrant energy of springtime. Dating back to 1902, the scene unfolds in an idyllic outdoor setting where children revel in the beauty and freedom of the season. In the heart of the image, a group of boys and girls engage in a lively rounders game, their laughter and excitement echoing through the air. The boys, dressed in short trousers and collared shirts, take turns swinging a bat and running towards the makeshift base, while the girls cheer them on. Nearby, a young girl climbs a tree with a determined expression, her arms and waist showing the effort and focus required to reach the next branch. Another boy, wearing a striped shirt and short pants, skillfully dribbles a hoop along the ground, while a girl, dressed in a pretty dress and a sun hat, playfully chases after him. In the background, a boy rides a horse, his arms outstretched for balance, while a girl, holding a rope, watches with a smile. The Edwardian-era children's playful antics and the lush, green surroundings of the park evoke a sense of nostalgia and wonder, transporting us to a simpler time when the joys of childhood and the beauty of spring were the greatest pleasures in life.
