EXERCISE AT HOME, 1921 - Embracing the Joys of Domesticity
EDITORS COMMENTS
. Step back in time to witness a humorous yet revealing snapshot of domestic life in 1921. This print titled "Exercise at Home" transports us to an era when having a maid was not a luxury enjoyed by all. The illustration by G. Pavis, featured in La Vie Parisienne magazine, humorously highlights the benefits of taking charge of household chores and bidding farewell to hired help. In this whimsical scene, we find ourselves amidst an intimate interior setting where young women are engaged in their daily cleaning routine. Dressed provocatively in negligees and nightgowns, they tackle dusting with gusto while simultaneously engaging in exercise routines that leave little to the imagination. The image captures both the risqué nature and lightheartedness of early French culture. It playfully suggests that without maids to handle these tasks, women found creative ways to combine housework with personal fitness goals – turning mundane chores into opportunities for self-expression and amusement. This vintage artwork reminds us that even amidst seemingly monotonous duties, there is room for laughter and innovation. It celebrates the resourcefulness and resilience of women who embraced their roles as homemakers while finding joy within their responsibilities. As we gaze upon this delightful print from Granger Art on Demand's collection, let it serve as a reminder that sometimes embracing our daily routines can lead us down unexpected paths filled with laughter, empowerment, and
