I should have included this table in yesterday’s post, but I forgot! I found this great little Eastlake table at a garage sale last weekend, didn’t get it and had regrets almost immediately. So later on in the day, after the garage sale hours were over, I messaged the seller and asked if it had sold. It was still there! I negotiated the price down a bit, and my husband and I drove back out to the garage sale location to get it. We’ve really fallen in love with Eastlake furniture over the past year, and have a hard time passing any pieces up, especially for a decent price. (Never mind the fact that we live in a very small house and really don’t have room for all the furniture we find!) We’re slowly replacing our big box store furniture that we’ve had for years with pieces that have character and craftsmanship, and I love that! . #garagesalefinds #antiques #antiquefurniture #eastlake #eastlakefurniture #victorian #historymeetsdecor #mypastperfectfind #mycollecteddecor #mycozycottagehome #myfarmhousecottagestyle #cottagestyle #victorianera #cozycottagestyle #oldisnew #patina #myvintagehome #vintagedecor #antiquedecor #iloveantiques

New to our shop! Our Tudor ring designs are inspired by the painter Hans Eworth. These rings are reproductions from his beautiful piece, Mary Fiennes and her son Gregory Fiennes, which was painted in 1559. The Reformation is considered the highlight of the Tudor period and Eworth captures this well, with his paintings of military inspired allegories, aristocracy and martyrs. See the last photo for our inspiration. The ring features an emerald-colored crystal. #statementjewelry #jewelrywebsite #museumjewelry #reproduction #museumcollection #historicalfashion #jewelrymaking #jewelrydesign #jewelrygram #museumreproductions #tudorhistory #queenmary #tudor #hanseworth #victorianera #history #maryfiennes #emeraldring #emerald #maybirthstone #maybirthstonering

Good Saturday everyone! The bright look of these little girls that comes through the portrait seems to me to be a good start to this day. There is a time in everyone's life when every day is a great day because it is free of problems and worries, that is childhood. Being an adult usually hurts but this does not happen when we are children and that is what I see in their eyes: hope for a good future. #timetravel #oldtimes #timetraveler #cabinetcard #cabinetphoto #weirdphoto #1900 #1800 #1900s #1800s #victorian #victorianera #timetravelers #oddities #odditiesandcuriosities #oldpicture #oldpictures #imaginedstory #fairy #fairies #foundphotograpy #womenofthepast #19thcenturyphotography #victorianphotography #facesofthepast #picturewantsastory #aiphotography #aiphoto #aipicture #oldphotoscabinet

Polaire (born Émilie Marie Bouchaud) was a French stage performer, generally known for her eccentric stage presence and striking appearance. Her career stretched from the early 1890s to the mid-1930s and encompassed the range from music-hall singer to stage and film actress. Her most successful period professionally was from the mid-1890s to the beginning of the First World War. The circumference of her waist reportedly measured between 14-16 inches without a corset, she sported bobbed hair years before it came into fashion, and she wore short skirts, tiny corsets, and a nose ring. During her 1910 tour to America, she billed herself as “the ugliest woman in the world,” to advance further publicity. Polaire also briefly performed in London. . . “When I first tried to go onto the stage no one would have me: I was too homely. I almost committed suicide with disappointment. But suddenly I say, ‘Well if I can’t be pretty, I shall be ugly.’ At least I have the verve and chic! (Oh fine!) So I made myself as homely as I could. My shoes make my feet look even larger. My scrawny waist I draw in even tighter; my large hands I show as much as possible. I paint my mouth even larger than it is; my eyes I try to make appear farther apart than they are. And so I have succeeded. From the first I began to make my fortune, I thought my audience would make fun of me and take me in sport. Instead, they take me so seriously and watch my every move. I know I can dance well, even if I am ugly, and it is the contrast between grace and ugliness that fascinates the audience. Since I resolved to be ugly, I have not had one unhappy moment. Admirers! La! They come in bordes!” — The Tacoma Times (Tacoma, WA), June 8, 1910. . #polaire #emiliebouchard #frenchperformers #theatricalperformers #musichallperformer #vaudeville #stageactress #edwardianera #victorianera #showbizhistory #showbusinesshistory

Meditation in the heights? It's possible, but I think this man is doing something else. Maybe he's really thinking, but in a different way. The sad face helps a lot to contextualize the photo and, above all, the complete lack of clothing (not even shoes to be able to climb) catches my attention. What I have no doubt about is that the landscape must be one that leaves one breathless!

Mock turtle soup anyone? I have a stack of fascinating early Victorian cookery and household management books I'll be adding in the next day or so. Including from 174 years ago in 1850, Eliza Acton's Modern Cookery, which was the forerunner to Mrs Beeton. In fact, the latter pinched a couple of Acton's recipes. Acton's is regarded as a cookery classic. There's a Domestic Economy book I could get lost in for hours. If you want to know what was involved in running a large Victorian Household, this one has it all. I've another by one of my personal heroes Agnes B Marshall, who came from obscurity to set up a world-renowned cookery school and pioneer freezing food whilst inventing the ice cream cone. If you get 5 minutes her biography is worth a Google. I also currently have a scarce 1st edition of Fantastic Ices by her in stock too. I'll post these in my Stories as they go listed and "live". #cookbooks #recipe #victorianhouse #victorianera #victorianstyle #cookerybook #kitchen #traditionalkitchen #vintagekitchen #cookware #copperpans

The Lady Brigante loves nothing more than shocking unsuspecting folk with the tale that she was abandoned at birth by gypsies and raised en famille with kindly mice in the crypt of an old church. Alas! The truth is altogether more unremarkable for although blessed with an illustrious and extensive lineage – Lady B was in truth raised in genteel affluence in the ancient City of York. Described as the bête noire of the long forgotten dearly departed – the Lady B is a sleuth of infamy, wanderer of unquiet graveyards and much more besides. And with the promise of dusk - she and her raven headed cane will heed our call and will take to the unquiet streets and secret passageways of York, Scarborough and beyond once more in search of the long-forgotten dead. 🐦‍⬛ 🎟 Tickets Await the Curious! #LadyBrigante #PoliteTourist #DeadSleuth #TrueCrimeCurious #VictorianEra #SnickelSleuth #YorkGothic #ScarboroGothic #StillSleuthing 🔍 📸 Steve Evans Photography

Там може бути страшно ⠀ В новій ролі, в новому образі. Коли вони не лише про зовнішні прикраси, а про внутрішній стан. Коли знаєш, що на тебе чекає глибина. Коли розумієш, що хочеш пірнути, але не знаєш чи випливеш. Що як ти в ній розчинишся і не зможеш повернутися? ⠀ Змінити своє я, свою сутність на якийсь час. Страшно? Безперечно. Варте того? Сто відсотків. Бо ці нові, здавалося б чужі, глибини розкривають твої власні🖤

« I understand that some of you might prefer that authors not tamper with the classics. But here’s something I’ve learned as a reader: none of the stories in the huge canon of retellings and fanfic take away from the originals. Quite the opposite. In most instances, the retellings are borne of a deep and abiding love for the source material. That’s certainly true in my case. » (Mimi Matthews, Author's note to John Eyre) What if Jane Eyre was John Eyre? Check Medicis for more 💯 Link in bio

While steam power was recognised as being a viable source of power, it was George Stephenson and his son Robert that created the first viable locomotive engine - one that was not stationary but could actually move as it worked. Their first big success was the Rocket. Their economically viable invention changed the Kingdom and the world. People travelled and met others they might never had known. Foods and goods could now be delivered far and wide for new culinary experiences. Steam is such an intrinsic aspect to the era that we now have the literary genre of Steampunk.

The world of automata and especially the one from the time that I show you in this picture is absolutely amazing. So much so that today you can still discover artifacts, prototypes, models and of course prototypes of robots that came to nothing until they were developed many decades later. We have always wanted to build machines (For millennia in fact!). To make our lives easier or for simple entertainment. And I don't really know what this one I'm showing you here is for, but it looks so exotic and attractive!

These images could very well be from a theme park or perhaps come from the set of a movie, even from the joint celebration of some town festival. And yet, how beautiful it would be if they were real. They look like photographs taken from a story (that fog...). I would love to know a place like this. Fortunately, we always have our imagination, which is the refuge of many of us when daily life suffocates. #timetravel #oldtimes #timetraveler #cabinetcard #cabinetphoto #weirdphoto #oldphoto #1900 #1800 #1900s #1800s #picturewantsastory #victorian #victorianera #oldphhotos #oddities #odditiesandcuriosities #oldpicture #oldpictures #imaginedstory #steampunk #steampunkphotos #19thcenturyphotography #historycolored #victorianphotography #facesofthepast #aiphotography #aiphoto #aipicture #oldphotoscabinet

Hello, everyone! Sometimes things are not what they seem, and for example, this: This boy who looks like an angel deep down is just a kid with torn stockings who has sat very conveniently in front of some stone wings. However, the photo is great! Although sometimes reality may be different, pretending, emulating, recreating does not have to be anything bad, on the contrary! Life would be much more boring if we always stuck to the harsh reality!

Good morning everyone! Old photos of cities are like portals to another world. Those places existed and are still there today, although often not in the same way that an antique picture could show them, and as a sample, this image. Surely it is the margin of a river passing through a town but there is no longer any place like that. Can something be missed that has never been known?

Europe 175 years ago today: May Uprisings (9 May 1849) https://omniatlas.com/maps/europe/18490509/ In Germany, the National Assembly in Frankfurt had produced a constitution for a new German Empire with King Frederick William IV of Prussia as its Emperor. However Frederick William rejected the role while only the smaller German states proved willing to adopt the constitution, provoking a new wave of revolutions in support of the National Assembly. #19thcentury #austrianempire #bavaria #carta #diplomacy #europeanhistory #germanconfederation #germanhistory #histories #historybuff #historyfacts #historygram #historylesson #historymaker #historynerd #hungarianhistory #instahistory #mapping #maps #may #may9 #prussia #teachinghistory #victorian #victorianera #worldatlas #revolutions #todayinhistory #historytoday #thisdayinhistory

This girl running is already a great portrait in itself, but if we also look at what surrounds her (the weeds, the dilapidated door, the houses behind her) the picture becomes even better. Where will she be? On some kind of country road? The backyard of a house? Is he playing or is he in a hurry for something? There are many unknowns for a simple photo! It would be great, as always, to get a story out of this. #timetravel #oldtimes #timetraveler #vintagephoto #cabinetcard #timetravelers #cabinetphoto #weirdphoto #oldphoto #1900 #1800 #1900s #1800s #victorian #victorianera #victorianwomen #foundphoto #oddities #odditiesandcuriosities #oldpicture #imaginedstory #womenofthepast #facesofthepast #19thcenturyphotography #victorianphotography #picturewantsastory #aiphotography #aiphoto #aipicture #oldphotoscabinet

By Mimmi Matthews, 2021 ~ « I understand that some of you might prefer that authors not tamper with the classics. But here’s something I’ve learned as a reader: none of the stories in the huge canon of retellings and fanfic take away from the originals. Quite the opposite. In most instances, the retellings are borne of a deep and abiding love for the source material. That’s certainly true in my case. » (Mimi Matthews, Author's note to John Eyre) ~ In this retelling of "Jane Eyre" (C. Brontë), the main character is hired as a tutor for two young boys who are taking refuge in silence. A few years before and far away from England, Bertha Mason reports in her journal her encounter with Mr. Rochester. ~ I enjoyed this retelling because it is faithful both by the plot and by the atmosphere. Besides gender twisting, it shows an interesting reading of Jane Eyre in extending the supernatural dimension. 1) The retelling follows well the original plot of Jane Eyre. Indeed in both novels a young person goes to Thornfield as a teacher and is progressively attracted by their employer. It also abides by the personality of the original characters, for instance Rochester is still a person with a heavy weight on their shoulders. Likewise, the dark and odd atmosphere is used once more : Thornfield is still a gloomy castle with a lot of mystery. 2) The obvious difference with Jane Eyre is that the female characters are now male and vice versa, with some exceptions. Even if it impacts their way of speaking and their relationship with the other characters, their main traits are unchanged. This gender twisting is however not the biggest change 3) The most striking innovation is the supernatural dimension. For instance, the mist surrounding Thornfield is given almost magical attributes and is actually the leitmotiv of the story. Supernatural elements where already suggested by C. Brontë as M. Matthews wisely notes in the postscript. I think it was the best approach to retell this book without deriving from the original work. I heard a lot of good things concerning Mimmi Matthews and I am happy to have read her in the end. A favorite all in all! ~ Have a nice week!
