Details and History
The Library of Congress website offers a multitude of historical images, many with no known restrictions on use. This image is from the 1900 Whiting Bros. stereograph titled Mind the children, finish the washing, and have dinner at 12. If one explores 1890's fashion the adults appear to be wearing clothing appropriate to the other gender. However, the lady's outfit may be a proper cycling outfit which could include breeches. This image reflects an issue from the Gay Nineties (1890-1900) when gender stereotypes were challenged by the developing suffragette movement.
