"Nourrice: A Glimpse into the World of Caregivers and Maternal Bonding" Step back in time with these captivating artworks that depict the role of a nourrice, or governess, throughout history. In "The Governess, 1863, " an oil on canvas masterpiece, we witness the nurturing presence of a caregiver as she tends to her charges with love and dedication. In "Knitting Lesson, 1869, " another oil on canvas creation, we see how this noble profession extends beyond education. The nourrice not only imparts knowledge but also teaches practical skills such as knitting. This painting transports us to a bygone era where craftsmanship was passed down through generations. Travel further back in time to "Anne Boleyn in the Tower of London (1536), 1835. " Here, an oil on canvas artwork captures the poignant moment when Anne Boleyn's life hangs in balance while her infant is cared for by a devoted nanny. This piece reminds us that even amidst turmoil and tragedy, maternal care remains steadfast. Delve into the realm of supernatural occurrences with "Paranormal Activity: A Newborn Moving Objects by Levitation. " This chromolithography from the late 19th century showcases mysterious phenomena surrounding infants. Is it poltergeist or telekinesis? The image leaves us questioning what lies beyond our understanding. Indulge your senses with advertisements like "Advertising for Chocolate Drink Carpentier" from around 1900. These posters entice mothers with promises of nourishment and pleasure for both themselves and their little ones—a testament to how caregivers have always sought ways to provide comfort through food. Venture into darker territory with Thomas Rowlandson's handcoloured copperplate engraving depicting Death rocking a cradle while the nanny sleeps—an eerie reminder that life's fragility is ever-present.
