Accident Enjoyment Falling Pastime Skate Skater Skaters Skates Skating Nineteenth Slipping
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the 19th century, showcasing the joy and excitement of outdoor ice skating. From Eduard Fuchs' renowned publication "Illustrierte Sittengeschichte Vom Mittelalter Bis Zur Gegenwart" published in 1909, this image captures a moment frozen in history. In this scene, skaters gracefully glide across a frozen lake, their movements embodying both elegance and exhilaration. The crisp winter air fills with laughter and shouts of delight as they revel in the simple pleasure of gliding on ice. Each skater's unique style is showcased through their carefully crafted routines and daring tricks. However, not all moments are picture-perfect. As we peer closer into the frame, we witness some unfortunate slips and falls that remind us of the unpredictable nature of ice skating. These unexpected accidents add an element of realism to this nostalgic snapshot from another era. The 19th century was a time when outdoor activities like ice skating were cherished pastimes for people seeking respite from their daily lives. This print serves as a reminder that throughout history, humans have found solace and enjoyment in connecting with nature during colder months. Ken Welsh's expertly captured image transports us back to a simpler time when winter brought its own kind of magic - where slipping on icy surfaces could be seen as part of the adventure rather than an inconvenience. It invites viewers to appreciate both the beauty and challenges that come with embracing outdoor activities during wintertime
