This intriguing photograph showcases The Shampoo Chair, an ingenious invention by the renowned British illustrator J.C. Robinson. Created in the early 20th century, this chair was designed to bring convenience to those who preferred the privacy and control of doing their own dry shampooing at home. The Shampoo Chair, with its fantastical and historical flair, is a testament to Robinson's creativity and his knack for designing mind-boggling contraptions. Robinson was a prolific contributor to various publications, including the Sketch, the Bystander, and the Illustrated London News (ILN). His weekly drawings, which featured such whimsical inventions and designs, were immensely popular among readers. This image, courtesy of the estate of Mrs. J.C. Robinson, Pollinger Ltd, and the ILN, offers a glimpse into the imaginative world of this brilliant artist. The Shampoo Chair, with its elegant curves and intricate details, appears both functional and fantastical. The chair's design includes a built-in basin, a conveniently placed mirror, and a series of levers and pipes that suggest the application of dry shampoo. The chair's ornate decoration, reminiscent of Art Deco motifs, adds to its allure and charm. Robinson's Shampoo Chair is not only a historical curiosity but also a work of art, showcasing the artist's ability to blend form and function in a captivating way. This photograph invites us to ponder the inventions of the past and the imaginative minds that brought them to life.
