EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming image of Florence Upton, captured in the early 1900s as she engages in a lively game of peg solitaire. The vintage photograph showcases Florence dressed in a red and white striped dress, her expression focused and determined as she moves a wooden peg across the striped board. The classic peg solitaire game, also known as Pegg Solitaire or Solitaire Pegs, is an ancient single-player puzzle game that originated in Europe during the 15th century. The simplicity of the game, which involves moving pegs on a board to capture all but one, has made it a popular pastime throughout history. In this photograph, Florence's doll, dressed in a matching striped outfit, looks on with interest, suggesting that she may have been teaching the game to her toy. The use of wooden pegs and a striped board adds to the timeless appeal of the game, which continues to be enjoyed by people of all ages today. Florence's pose and expression convey a sense of enjoyment and concentration, making this photograph a delightful reminder of the enduring appeal of simple pleasures and the joy of a good game.
