EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1915 captures the essence of archery during the turn of the century. Mrs. Louis C. Smith, wife of the renowned American archer, stands outside their house dressed in elegant clothing, ready to practice her aim with a bow and arrow. The image exudes an air of both grace and determination as Mrs. Smith takes aim, showcasing her skill and passion for this ancient sport. Her gloved hand firmly holds the bow while her focused gaze reveals her unwavering concentration. Intriguingly, this photograph offers a glimpse into early 20th-century America's fascination with archery as a form of amusement and recreation. It serves as a testament to how individuals like Mrs. Smith embraced this activity not only for leisure but also as a means to showcase their talent. The simplicity of the composition allows us to appreciate every detail: from Mrs. Smith's meticulously chosen attire to the delicate balance she maintains while standing in anticipation. This snapshot freezes a moment in time when archery was not just an art but also an expression of personal style and accomplishment. As we admire this vintage photograph, we are transported back to an era where women like Mrs. Louis C. Smith defied societal norms by engaging in traditionally male-dominated sports—a reminder that strength knows no gender boundaries even at times when such endeavors were considered unconventional or daring.
