EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The Meshlakh, or Cooling Room, of the Turkish Baths, Jermyn Street, London, 1862," offers a glimpse into the historical Turkish Baths located on Jermyn Street in London during the mid-19th century. The image captures the intricate details of the cooling room, where bathers would retire after their rigorous bathing routine to relax and recover. The Meshlakh, also known as the caldarium, was an essential part of the Turkish Bath experience. It was a large, dimly lit room with a domed ceiling adorned with intricate Islamic geometric patterns. The room was filled with marble benches, where bathers would recline and rest, covered in thick, warm towels. The cooling room was designed to provide a soothing contrast to the hotter bathing areas, allowing bathers to gradually adjust to the temperature outside. The Turkish Baths in Jermyn Street were a popular destination for both locals and tourists in London during the Victorian era. The baths were known for their authentic Turkish design and traditional bathing practices, which were believed to offer numerous health benefits. The bathing experience was seen as a luxurious and indulgent way to relax and rejuvenate, and the Turkish Baths in Jermyn Street were renowned for their high-quality services and elegant decor. This engraving provides a fascinating insight into the history of the Turkish Baths in London and the cultural significance of this unique institution. The intricate details of the cooling room, from the ornate ceiling to the marble benches, offer a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of this historic bathhouse. The image also serves as a reminder of the enduring appeal of traditional bathing practices and the importance of preserving cultural heritage for future generations.
