EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The bathing season; Do you call that a header?" takes us back to the 19th century, capturing a moment of leisure and amusement. The engraving, created by an English School artist, showcases a lively scene from The Days Doings on August 13th, 1870. In this image, we see individuals enjoying the ocean during the bathing season in Baden, Germany. A group of swimmers is depicted mid-dive into the water while others watch with anticipation. One swimmer stands out as they perform an impressive dive known as a "header". Their daring maneuver catches everyone's attention and sparks excitement among spectators. The fashion of the era is also highlighted in this artwork. The bathers are seen wearing traditional swimsuits typical for that time period in Germany. This glimpse into German culture provides insight into how people enjoyed recreational activities during this historical period. As we admire this piece from Look and Learn / Rosenberg Collection through Bridgeman Images' lens, it reminds us of the joyous spirit associated with swimming as both a sport and pastime. It serves as a testament to human fascination with water sports throughout history and invites us to reflect on our own experiences at the beach or poolside.
