EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving from the 19th century takes us back in time to experience the ancient tradition of Russian steam baths. The image, part of a private collection, beautifully captures the essence of this cultural practice that has been cherished for centuries. Intriguingly, both male and female figures are depicted enjoying the sauna together, highlighting the communal aspect of these steam baths. The atmosphere is filled with warmth as billowing clouds of steam envelop them. Leaves scattered on the floor suggest a connection to nature and perhaps symbolize rejuvenation. The scene exudes an aura of tranquility and relaxation as individuals cleanse their bodies amidst this therapeutic environment. It serves as a reminder that saunas have long been recognized not only for their cleansing properties but also for promoting overall well-being. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke; one can almost feel the heat radiating from within this bustling space. This print transports us into a bygone era where people sought solace in these traditional bathhouses, indulging in moments dedicated solely to self-care. As we admire this historical artwork, it prompts contemplation about how spa culture has evolved over time while still retaining its core principles: hygiene, wellness, and serenity. Let us appreciate this glimpse into history through artistry and honor those who have preserved such timeless traditions.
