Young Women Exercise at Curtis High School

Young Women Exercise at Curtis High School

On Staten Island, a panoramic view by the artist captures a long line of young women from Curtis High School who wear “romper” style gym outfits while exercising on an athletic field. “Bloomers”, “Middy” blouses and loose scarves made up their uniforms.

Charles Rollins Tucker, 1868-1956.
