Pic of the Week: Riding in Style Edition

Share this post:

Aaron Copland on bicycle, with harpist Djina Ostrowska, Fountainebleau, 1921.

This weekend Washington hosts the 2011 Seersucker Social, an event where the city’s hipsterati don vintage threads and leisurely tour the town upon vintage bicycles. So if you’re in the Nation’s Capital tomorrow you may happen upon scenes that recall this week’s featured picture, a candid snapshot of composer Aaron Copland with harpist Djina Ostrowska. Visit the Aaron Copland Collection in American Memory.
