EDITORS COMMENTS
This colour lithograph from the 19th century depicts Russian peasants using a steam bath, providing a glimpse into the daily lives of rural communities during that time period. The image showcases the traditional practice of steam bathing, which was not only a means of personal hygiene but also served as a social gathering place for villagers to relax and unwind. The contrast between the warmth inside the steam bath and the cold winter landscape outside is striking, highlighting the harsh conditions in which these peasants lived. The vibrant colours used in this print bring to life the scene, capturing both the physical heat of the steam bath and the chill of winter. Through this illustration, we are transported back in time to witness a moment of respite for these hardworking individuals. It serves as a reminder of their resilience and resourcefulness in finding ways to stay warm and clean despite limited resources. This artwork is not just a visual representation but also an insight into cultural practices and traditions that have been passed down through generations. It invites us to appreciate the simplicity and communal spirit found in everyday activities like taking a steam bath together.
