EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Retro Food: Dieters Daily Food Log, 1957" takes us back to the nostalgic era of the 1950s. Created by an anonymous American artist from the 20th century, this screen print showcases a dieter's daily food log and a tape measure in a truly retro style. The image portrays a notebook filled with handwritten notations and calculations, representing the meticulous efforts of individuals striving to maintain their weight during that time. The pencil marks on the page indicate portions and calorie counts meticulously recorded for each meal. This visual representation serves as a reminder of how dieting practices have evolved over time. Accompanying the food log is an old-fashioned tape measure, symbolizing the emphasis placed on physical measurements during this period. It highlights society's preoccupation with body shape and size, which continues to be relevant today. With its vintage charm and kitschy appeal, this illustration captures both our fascination with history and our ongoing quest for self-improvement through dieting. It provides insight into past attitudes towards weight loss while inviting contemplation about our own contemporary approaches. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from eGraphicaArtis collection brought to you by Bridgeman Images, we are reminded that despite changing trends in food culture and nutrition science, some aspects of human nature remain constant throughout time – including our desire for personal betterment.
