EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of the Shanks Superior Bath Cabinet, dating back to the late 19th century. The cabinet, a true testament to Victorian luxury and elegance, is beautifully carved from wood, adding a touch of sophistication to any bathroom. The image captures the concept of indulgence in bathing during this era, as well as highlighting the importance placed on creating a luxurious space for personal care. The intricate details of the cabinet's design are brought to life through monochrome photography, emphasizing its timeless beauty. Printed in 1956 as part of "Things" a volume exploring the origins and early history of various objects both essential and non-essential, this photograph offers viewers a glimpse into British heritage. It serves as a reminder that even everyday items can be works of art when crafted with skill and attention to detail. While we may not know who specifically created this particular print or its intended purpose beyond being an educational resource within "Things" it remains an invaluable piece for those interested in historical furniture and interior design. This image allows us to appreciate how our ancestors valued aesthetics even in private spaces like bathrooms while providing inspiration for contemporary designs rooted in tradition.
