(c) Courtesy of the estate of Mrs J.C.Robinson/Pollinger Ltd/Mary Evans Picture Library Title: "A Unique Shaving Ritual: W.H. Robinson's Wayside Shave" This intriguing photograph captures W.H. Robinson in the midst of an unusual shaving routine, showcasing both his resourcefulness and the ingenuity of the past. Taken in the early 20th century, Robinson is seen leaning against the wing mirror of a car, meticulously applying lather to his face and shaving with a razor. The serene heath landscape in the background adds to the tranquil atmosphere, making this scene a charming snapshot of a bygone era. W.H. Robinson, an unidentified individual, appears to have made the most of an opportunity to maintain his grooming while on the go. The use of a wing mirror for shaving was an innovative solution to the lack of convenient mirrors during travel. This photograph not only highlights the importance of personal hygiene and appearance but also sheds light on the adaptability and humor of people in the past. The image, filled with a sense of nostalgia, offers a glimpse into the daily life of the past. The simple act of shaving, which we often take for granted today, becomes a fascinating historical moment when viewed through the lens of this photograph. The combination of the rugged heath terrain, the vintage car, and Robinson's determined expression make for a captivating and humorous composition. This photograph, with its unique subject matter and historical significance, is a testament to the richness and diversity of our past. It serves as a reminder that even the most mundane tasks can hold stories and lessons that enrich our understanding of history.
