Bathing in the Ice

Sport d'hiver des plus curieux. Les baigneurs, malgré la neige, la glace et le froid très vif, se jettent à l'eau dans les espaces creusés dans la glace.

GAU 1906-07


Bathing in the Ice

Taken at Coney Island during a recent spell of severe weather. In Arctic surroundings a party of intrepid bathers take their morning dip. With the thermometer at several degrees below zero. After the plunge violent exercises are resorted to “ to keep the cold out. ” There are many amusing incidents in the picture. One bather, a veritable Titan, makes the plunge four times. Another member of the party is a clever contortionist, and gives an exceedingly a exhibition of this art.

The Era, February 10, 1906, p. 30.
