EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing engraving from the 19th century showcases a bidet fitted with an enema pump, providing us with a fascinating glimpse into historical hygiene practices. The image is part of a private collection and was originally created by the German School. It was later used as an illustration for the book "La Femme, Medecin du Foyer" by Anna Fischer (Muller) around 1900. The focus of this print lies in highlighting the importance of cleanliness and health, particularly for women. Bidets were commonly used during this time to maintain personal hygiene, but what makes this particular piece unique is its incorporation of an enema pump. This device would have been utilized for medical purposes, emphasizing the intersection between medicine and everyday household routines. As we examine this artwork, it prompts us to reflect on how our understanding and approach towards healthcare has evolved over time. While bidets are still widely used today for cleansing purposes, advancements in medical technology have rendered enema pumps less common in domestic settings. Overall, this engraving serves as a testament to the significance placed on maintaining good hygiene throughout history and offers valuable insights into past customs surrounding female health and well-being.
