Overview

This amusing and provocative collection of early hand-tinted postcards and black-and-white photographs presents the American female bather in her colorful seaside costumes. Posed and spontaneous, sober and giddy, these early images offer a delightful ode to women at the beach. They also serve as an evocative social document of the newly liberated woman.

Beth Dunlop, the former architecture critic of The Miami Herald, is the author of Building a Dream: The Art of Disney Architecture.
