EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'Women Sunbathers 1930s' by an unidentified photographer, transports us back in time to a simpler era. The image, available through Mary Evans Picture Library from Mary Evans Prints Online, showcases three young women in their bathing suits, soaking up the sun's rays in a tranquil outdoor setting. The women, each adorned with a stylish bathing cap, sit on wicker chairs with their faces upturned towards the sun, relishing in the warmth and vitality it brings. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the evolution of sunbathing culture in the early 20th century. Sunbathing, once considered a radical and even dangerous practice, had gained popularity by the 1930s as people began to understand the health benefits of sunlight. The women in this photograph embody the spirit of this newfound appreciation for the sun, embracing the natural beauty of their bodies and the rejuvenating power of the sun. The use of wicker chairs adds an element of elegance and sophistication to the scene, while the women's bathing caps, a common accessory during this time, serve as a reminder of the modest attitudes towards sunbathing in the 1930s and 1940s. The intricate patterns on the caps, as well as the loose-fitting bathing suits, reflect the fashion trends of the era. This photograph offers a glimpse into the history of body culture and the changing attitudes towards the sun and the human body. It is a beautiful and intriguing piece that invites us to reflect on the past and the ways in which our relationship to the sun and our bodies has evolved over time.
