EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image, titled "Baby is Bathed: Maman pours a jugful of water over her little boy as the nurse looks on apprehensively," transports us back in time to the late 19th century. Captured in 1897 by an unknown photographer and made available through Mary Evans Picture Library, this photograph offers a rare glimpse into the intimate moment of a baby's bathing routine. The scene unfolds in a simple, rustic setting, with the mother, or "Maman," standing over a wooden tub filled with water. She carefully pours a jugful of water over her young son's head, while the nurse, dressed in a traditional uniform, watches with a concerned expression. The baby, bundled in a white cloth, seems oblivious to the commotion, his eyes closed in contentment. The image offers a poignant reminder of the importance of care and nurturing in the earliest days of life. The nurse's apprehensive gaze may reflect the potential risks associated with bathing an infant, such as the danger of water temperature or the possibility of slipping. Yet, despite these concerns, the mother continues with the task, demonstrating her love and devotion to her child. This photograph also highlights the role of nurses in the care of newborns during this time period. Nurses, who were often employed by wealthy families, played a crucial role in the upbringing of infants, providing assistance with feeding, bathing, and other daily tasks. The presence of a nurse in the scene underscores the importance of support systems for new mothers during the late 19th century. Overall, "Baby is Bathed: Maman pours a jugful of water over her little boy as the nurse looks on apprehensively" is a poignant and evocative image that captures the essence of motherhood and the delicate balance of care and concern that accompanies the early days of a child's life.
