Step into the Past: A Lady Prepares for Her Bath in Early 20th Century England This evocative image captures a moment of quiet intimacy and self-care from the early 20th century. The lady, dressed in a elegant, high-necked gown and lace cap, pauses before entering her bath. In her hand, she holds a small bottle labeled "Lewandowski's Bath Extract." Bathing was a daily ritual for the well-to-do in Victorian and Edwardian England. Bathrooms were considered luxuries, and taking a bath was seen as a sign of good hygiene and refinement. The bath itself was often a large, claw-footed tub, filled with hot water from a heated water tank or a fire heated copper. The addition of bath extracts was a common practice, believed to enhance the bathing experience and promote health and well-being. Lewandowski's Bath Extract was a popular choice, advertised for its soothing and rejuvenating properties. The extract was made from a secret formula of herbs and essential oils, which were believed to have therapeutic benefits. As the lady carefully pours the extract into the water, she closes her eyes and takes a deep breath, savoring the aroma of the herbs and the anticipation of the relaxing soak ahead. The steam rises from the water, creating a misty atmosphere in the room. The scene is one of tranquility and self-indulgence, a moment of respite from the demands of daily life in early 20th century England. This photograph is a glimpse into the past, a reminder of the simple pleasures and daily routines of a bygone era. It invites us to reflect on the history of bathing and the ways in which we have sought to enhance our personal care and well-being throughout the centuries.
