EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Royal Wells, Cheltenham or Spasmodic affections from Spa Waters" takes us back to the early 19th century, immersing us in a scene of leisure and healing. The hand-coloured engraving by Isaac Robert Cruikshank showcases a bustling street in the spa town of Cheltenham, where individuals seeking relief from their ailments gather. In this vibrant image, we see a diverse group of people - both male and female - engaging with various modes of transportation designed for those with physical limitations. A woman sits comfortably in a bath chair, her delicate frame suggesting she is an invalid seeking solace through mineral water treatments. Couples stroll arm-in-arm along the streets, perhaps hoping that the therapeutic properties of these waters will bring them closer together. The cartoon-like quality adds an element of whimsy to this otherwise serious subject matter. It reminds us that even during times when people sought medical cures with utmost seriousness, there was still room for lightheartedness and joy. "The Royal Wells" transports us to an era when spas were not only places for physical rejuvenation but also social gathering spots. This enchanting engraving captures the essence of a bygone era while reminding us that throughout history, humans have always sought remedies and companionship in their quest for wellness.
