EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to 19th century London, offering a glimpse into the lives of the less fortunate. Titled "Baths and Wash-houses for the poor" it is a page from The Pictorial Times, published in 1845. The article highlights the opening of the St Pancras establishment, dedicated to providing bathing and washing facilities for those in need. The engraving showcases several illustrations that vividly depict different aspects of this charitable initiative. A ground plan reveals the layout of St Pancras baths and wash-houses, while other images showcase specific areas within these establishments. We see a third-class bath where individuals could cleanse themselves, a washing tub where clothes were scrubbed diligently, and finally, a bustling wash house filled with people engaged in their daily chores. These scenes not only provide insight into the physical spaces but also offer glimpses into the lives of women and men who relied on these facilities. It serves as a reminder that even amidst challenging circumstances, communities come together to support one another. Preserved in private collection today, this historical print captures an important moment when society recognized the importance of hygiene for all its members. It stands as both an artistic representation and documentation of social progress during that era – reminding us how far we have come since then.
