Scarf, or Towel Exercises, 3 - A Glimpse into the Physical Culture of the Early 20th Century
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a moment in time when physical culture was at its peak. The image showcases an English School's illustration for a set of cigarette cards on the theme of Physical Culture, published by Wills Cigarettes in the early 20th century. In this particular scene, we see a man engaging in scarf or towel exercises - a popular form of physical activity during that era. With his muscular physique and determined expression, he demonstrates the dedication and discipline required to maintain optimal health and fitness. The vibrant lithograph brings to life not only the human figure but also highlights various elements associated with this cultural phenomenon. From colorful scarves draped around his neck to summer clothes worn during exercise sessions, every detail adds depth to our understanding of bodybuilding and sport during this period. Beyond showcasing physical prowess, this artwork offers insights into societal norms and values prevalent at that time. It serves as a reminder of how smoking addiction was intertwined with daily life as cigarettes were used as promotional tools for different industries. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, let us appreciate the artistry behind it while reflecting on how far society has come in terms of embracing healthier lifestyles.
