At The Sea Baths - The Raft
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an enchanting and humorous illustration from the March of the Women collection, circa 1901, showcasing the playful antics of bathers at the seashore. The image, created by renowned French caricaturist Albert Robida (1848-1922), captures the essence of a carefree day at the beach. The illustration depicts a large, wooden raft in the ocean, listing at a steep angle, causing several swimmers to struggle to maintain their balance. The raft's exaggerated tilt adds an element of excitement and adventure to the scene, as the bathers cling on for dear life. A nearby lady, with a determined look in her eyes, prepares to dive off the raft, adding to the lively atmosphere. The sea around the raft is calm and inviting, with gentle waves lapping at the shore. The sun casts a warm glow over the scene, highlighting the vibrant colors of the bathers' swimsuits and the rich hues of the ocean. The illustration is reminiscent of the Les Maitres de la Caricature issue 10, March 1901, and is a testament to Robida's masterful use of humor and observation. The image is a delightful snapshot of a bygone era, capturing the spirit of leisure and enjoyment that comes with a day at the beach. It is a charming reminder of the simple pleasures in life and the joy that can be found in the company of friends and family. Whether displayed in an album or framed on a wall, "At The Sea Baths: The Raft" is sure to bring a smile to the face of anyone who appreciates the beauty and humor of a day at the beach.
