EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the late 19th century, specifically to England in 1895. The image showcases an advertisement for a headache cure, depicted through a line engraving technique. This form of advertising was commonly used during this era to promote various products and services. The artwork features two elegantly dressed women wearing gowns that were fashionable at the turn of the century. They are portrayed with utmost grace and sophistication, perfectly embodying the refined English society of that time. One can't help but admire their poise and elegance as they engage with the advertisement. The text on the engraving highlights its purpose - to offer relief from headaches through a patented medicine. Patent medicines were popular during this period, often claiming miraculous cures for various ailments without scientific evidence or regulation. As we delve into this historical piece, it serves as a reminder of how advertising has evolved over time. It also sheds light on societal norms and beliefs surrounding health remedies in late 19th-century England.
