Was The World Cooler 50 Years Ago? These Vintage Photos Will Make You Want To Go Back In Time!

The Aristocrat Lifestyle – Circa 1900

The 20th century introduced the world to many new habits, but some of the old ways of the ‘1800s continued throughout the ‘1900s. One of the finest examples of that is depicted in the photo. Picnics started getting popular in the 18th century and were mainly viewed as an aristocratic hobby (according to History Today).

The aristocratic tradition continued throughout the next 200 years, and typical aristocrats were still around in 1900. People still do picnics, but picnics are no longer a pastime associated with the upper class. Nowadays, pretty much anyone can enjoy a Sunday afternoon meal in the park.
