EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the late 19th century, specifically to the year 1897. The image showcases a British newspaper advertisement that boldly promotes wigs as a solution for those suffering from baldness or seeking a fashionable hair transformation. With its intricate details and vintage charm, this piece of history offers a glimpse into the world of advertising during the turn of the century. The text in the advertisement is undoubtedly eye-catching, drawing attention to both men and women who desire luscious locks or wish to conceal their thinning hairlines. It serves as a testament to society's fascination with beauty standards even over a hundred years ago. The English language used in the ad adds an authentic touch, reminding us of Britain's rich cultural heritage. As we admire this remarkable artifact from The Granger Collection, it becomes evident that wigs have long been sought after for their transformative power. This photograph encapsulates not only an era but also reflects how fashion trends have evolved throughout time. Whether worn by women seeking elegance or men aiming for confidence, these wigs were undoubtedly en vogue at the end of the 19th century. Intriguingly nostalgic yet timeless in its appeal, this print transports us back in time while simultaneously sparking curiosity about our own modern-day perceptions of beauty and self-expression.
