EDITORS COMMENTS
A Reflective Moment of Hygiene and Household Pride: Advertisement for Brookes Soap, 1890 In this advertisement from 1890, a woman diligently polishes her metalware, her determined expression and the gleam in her eyes reflecting the bright light that illuminates her interior. The reflection in the mirror behind her reveals an image of a monkey, a playful nod to the Brookes Soap brand, which was known for its ability to make even the dullest surfaces shine as bright as a monkey's coat. The woman's immaculate attire and the pristine condition of her home speak volumes about her commitment to cleanliness and household pride. The advertisement, which is adorned with intricate designs and elegant typography, emphasizes the importance of using Brookes Soap for washing and cleaning. The soap was believed to be effective in removing dirt and grime, leaving a bright, refreshing lather that would make any surface sparkle. The advertisement also reflects the cultural values of the 1890s, a time when hygiene and cleanliness were becoming increasingly important in British society. The Victorian era placed a great emphasis on interior decoration and the appearance of one's home, and this advertisement showcases the role that soap and cleaning products played in maintaining a clean and polished household. The advertisement's use of reflection not only highlights the effectiveness of Brookes Soap but also creates a thought-provoking image that invites the viewer to consider their own commitment to cleanliness and the role that household items play in shaping our daily lives.
