1902 Camp Card Dress Fanciful Fortune Teller Gypsy Mystic Mysticism Occult Pose Stereotype Upper Class
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Palm Reading, c1902" we are transported back in time to witness a staged depiction of three fashionable women seeking their fortunes at a Gypsy camp. Taken around 1902, the image beautifully captures the mystique and allure surrounding occult practices during that era. The group of elegantly dressed women strike a pose as they eagerly await their turn with the fortune teller. The setting exudes an air of early mysticism, with flickering candlelight casting enchanting shadows upon the scene. The gypsy camp itself is adorned with fanciful decorations, creating an atmosphere that is both intriguing and mysterious. However, it is important to acknowledge that this photograph also perpetuates certain stereotypes associated with Gypsies at the time. The women's clothing reflects upper-class fashion trends of 1902, highlighting how even those from privileged backgrounds were drawn to such mystical experiences. As we delve into the world captured within this image, we are reminded of society's fascination with fortune telling and mysticism during this period. It serves as a reminder of our enduring curiosity about what lies beyond our immediate understanding and how individuals sought answers through various means like palm reading or card readings. This remarkable piece from The Granger Collection allows us to glimpse into a bygone era where belief in unseen forces intertwined seamlessly with high society fashion and intrigue.
