EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Tight-lacing (engraving)", takes us back to the 19th century when fashion and societal norms often clashed with health and well-being. The image showcases an engraving by an English School artist, depicting a practice known as tight-lacing. In this historical context, corsets were tightly laced around women's waists to achieve the desired hourglass figure. However, this pursuit of beauty came at a great sacrifice. The Family Doctor and Peoples Medical Adviser published this illustration on March 6th, 1886, shedding light on the detrimental effects of tight-lacing. The photograph captures not only the fashion trends of that era but also serves as a reminder of how society's expectations can sometimes compromise our health. It symbolizes the delicate balance between adhering to popular standards while prioritizing one's own well-being. Through this artwork, we are transported into a world where medicine meets fashion and nature intertwines with societal pressures. It prompts us to reflect on how far we have come in terms of understanding the importance of maintaining good health while embracing individuality. As we gaze upon this intriguing piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, let it serve as a testament to our evolving perceptions about beauty and remind us that true elegance lies in nurturing both our physical and mental well-being.
