EDITORS COMMENTS
Bathing At Southsea (1900): A Glimpse into the Joyous Era of Mixed Bathing". Step back in time to the early 20th century with this print captured by William Davis. The image transports us to Southsea, where holidaymakers are seen indulging in the popular leisure activity of mixed bathing. Along the picturesque shore, a line of bathing machines stands tall, ready to offer privacy and convenience to those seeking respite from the summer heat. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness a large crowd gathered on the beach, eagerly awaiting their turn for a refreshing dip in the sea. The collection of objects scattered around - towels, parasols, and beach chairs - hints at a day filled with relaxation and enjoyment. The wheel of one bathing machine serves as a reminder that these contraptions were once essential for preserving modesty during public swims. This archival photograph not only captures an era but also reflects upon changing lifestyles and societal norms. Mixed bathing was considered quite scandalous at that time; however, it symbolizes an evolving sense of freedom and liberation for both men and women. As we gaze upon this historical scene brimming with energy and excitement, we can almost feel ourselves transported back to those carefree days when holidays were cherished moments spent by the seaside. This remarkable piece invites us to reflect on our own relationship with leisure activities while appreciating how far society has come since then.
