Posing at the Piano in the Parlor, ca. 1910


A Vintage Photos Theme Park photo for the theme of indoor shots—with a focus on the style of the room.
Two women and a boy pretend to read from a book as they pose for a photo next to the piano in the corner of a well-appointed parlor. The sheet music on the left-hand side of the piano is "My Love Is Greater Than the World," which was published in 1910.
Notice all the interesting decorative details in the room—the photos, small bust, vase, and lacy cover on top of the piano; the patterned wallpaper, artwork, and lamp on the walls; the gauzy curtains at the window; and the stylish furniture (what do you call that round chair on the left?).
This is an unmailed real photo postcard with an Azo stamp box (four corner triangles pointing up) on the other side, which suggests a time frame—1904 to 1918—that matches the publication date of the sheet music.
For similar parlor piano pictures, see Parlor and Sitting Room, Elizabethtown, Pa., March 10, 1912; New Year Gathering, Chicago, Illinois, 1912; and They Laughed When We Sat Down at the Piano.

Your other photos are great, too. Although the one with the covered piano top makes me feel claustrophobic just looking at it! How much more stuff can they fit in there!
I think I've seen that one before, come to think of it. Isn't there some sort of story behind it?
