EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Hairdressers Window, 1907" by Joan Sloan, takes us back to the bustling streets of Hartford in the early 20th century. The image captures a vibrant scene outside a hairdressing salon, where a large group of people has gathered. Men in period costumes can be seen attentively watching through the window as skilled hairdressers work their magic on women's locks. The vertical composition of the photograph adds to its dynamic nature, drawing our eyes upward towards the ornate commercial sign hanging above the entrance. The Western script on this sign hints at an era when advertising was becoming increasingly prevalent. Despite being captured over a century ago, this fine art painting still manages to evoke a sense of liveliness and energy. It transports us outdoors into an era when street life was teeming with activity and social interactions were abundant. Joan Sloan's keen eye for detail is evident in every element of this photograph - from the intricate hairstyles being crafted inside to the curious expressions on spectators' faces outside. This piece serves as both a historical record and an artistic representation of everyday life during that time period. As we gaze upon this remarkable image from Universal Images Group (UIG), we are reminded of how much has changed since then while also appreciating timeless aspects such as human connection and creativity within urban environments.
