EDITORS COMMENTS
Parallel Bar Exercises, 1 (colour litho) captures the essence of physical culture in the early 20th century. This print, part of a set of cigarette cards published by Wills Cigarettes, showcases the dedication and discipline required for bodybuilding and gymnastics. In this vibrant illustration, a muscular man demonstrates his strength and agility on parallel bars. His chiseled chest glistens with sweat as he effortlessly performs gravity-defying maneuvers. The tree trunk-like bars symbolize both his determination to push beyond limits and the natural world's influence on physical activity. The artist skillfully combines elements of botany and natural history to create a visually striking composition. The presence of a majestic tree adds depth to the scene, highlighting the interconnectedness between nature and human endeavor. This artwork not only celebrates athleticism but also reflects societal attitudes towards health and fitness during that era. It serves as a reminder of how smoking addiction was once intertwined with cultural norms, represented by its association with tobacco products. As we admire this lithograph from Bridgeman Images' private collection, let us appreciate the beauty in physical exercise while acknowledging our progress in promoting healthier lifestyles today.
