EDITORS COMMENTS
In this woodcut print from 1568, we are transported to a bustling bathhouse in Renaissance Germany. The image showcases the proprietor of the establishment diligently attending to his customer's needs. With a focused expression on his bearded face, he delicately removes a pesky flea from the back of one of his patrons. The bathhouse itself exudes warmth and comfort, evident in its well-heated interior filled with wooden benches and basins for washing. A mother is seen seated nearby, attentively watching over her naked baby as it receives a gentle sponge bath. The atmosphere is alive with activity as other customers can be glimpsed going about their bathing rituals. Jost Amman's meticulous attention to detail shines through in this woodcut masterpiece. From the intricate calligraphy adorning the walls to the carefully etched facial expressions, every element adds depth and authenticity to this snapshot of daily life during that era. This print not only offers us an intimate glimpse into hygiene practices of the time but also serves as a reminder of our shared human experiences throughout history. It captures moments both mundane and extraordinary, reminding us that even centuries ago, people sought solace and cleanliness within these communal spaces. Sarin Images / The Granger Collection has preserved this remarkable piece of art for us to appreciate today, allowing us to marvel at its beauty while reflecting on how far we have come in terms of personal care and hygiene practices.
