Turning on the Prince II: A Glance into the 1960s Domestic Life This photograph, titled "Turning on the Cooker," offers a glimpse into the domestic setting of the 1960s, showcasing the elegance and grace of lady models as they prepare supper using the new Prince II, Parkinson Crown cooker. The image, from Mary Evans Picture Library, transports us back in time, inviting us to witness a moment of quiet efficiency and sophistication in the heart of the home. The kitchen, the hub of activity and nourishment, is adorned with the latest appliances, including the sleek and stylish Prince II cooker. The models, dressed in chic 1960s attire, exude an air of confidence and poise as they turn on the cooker, ready to begin their culinary creations. The warm, inviting light filtering in from the window adds to the cozy and welcoming atmosphere. The Prince II cooker, a symbol of modernity and progress, was a highly sought-after household appliance during the 1950s and 1960s. Its advanced features and elegant design made it a must-have for every modern household. In this photograph, we see the cooker not just as a functional object, but as a status symbol, a testament to the homeowner's ability to keep up with the latest trends and technologies. This image also serves as a reminder of the role of women in the domestic sphere during this era. Housewives were expected to maintain a clean and well-appointed home, and the kitchen was their domain. The act of turning on the cooker, a seemingly mundane task, was transformed into an artful and graceful ritual, a reflection of the pride and care that went into the preparation of a family meal. Overall, "Turning on the Cooker" is a fascinating snapshot of a bygone era, capturing the essence of domestic life in the 1960s and the role of the Prince II cooker in shaping it.
