This unique vintage photograph was captured in 1926, when cooling off in the reflecting pool wasn't strictly legal, but wasn’t an uncommon occurrence due to the shortage of public swimming facilities. This charming image portrays a vivid summer scene of children swimming and sailing a toy boat and brings to life a slice of history from the early 20th century.
This nostalgic photograph can be yours with our fine art reproduction print. Each print is made with archival, museum-quality materials. Both our paper and canvas are rated to last 100+ years, so you can be sure your prints will last a lifetime. Thanks to our digital restoration work, our prints reflect the original, pristine condition of the image. Our team worked on a digital scan of the original photo print to repair damage, remove dust and dirt, and correct fading, bringing this historic image back to life.
