EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print from the 18th century, we are transported back to a time of leisurely pursuits and genteel relaxation. The scene depicts Mr Deputy Dumpling and his family basking in the warm embrace of a sunny day at Bagnigge Wells, one of London's most popular spas during its heyday in the late 18th century. The image captures an idyllic moment as the family indulges in the pleasures offered by this renowned spa retreat. Dressed elegantly in their period attire, each member exudes an air of sophistication and refinement. Mr Deputy Dumpling himself dons a distinguished wig while his wife radiates gracefulness with her fashionable headdress. Their children can be seen engrossed in play, with one child clutching onto a cherished doll while another brandishes a delicate fan. These toys serve as reminders of childhood innocence amidst the backdrop of adult indulgence. Bagnigge Wells provided respite for both body and soul during this era when health was highly valued. It was here that people sought solace from bustling city life to rejuvenate their spirits through therapeutic waters and social interactions. This remarkable mezzotint print not only offers us a glimpse into past lives but also serves as a testament to the enduring allure of Bagnigge Wells – forever etched within our collective memory
