EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Waterproof" by Clarence F. Underwood depicts a scene of privilege and love in early 20th century America. The image showcases an upper-class couple, dressed impeccably, enjoying a swim together with the utmost elegance and grace. The composition exudes wholesomeness and charm as the lovers frolic amidst the crashing waves. Their waterproof attire symbolizes their ability to maintain their impeccable appearance even while indulging in leisurely activities. The handsome male figure represents the ideal of wealth and prosperity, while his attractive female counterpart embodies beauty and refinement. This artwork captures not only the physical attraction between these two individuals but also highlights societal stereotypes prevalent during that era. It reflects an era when old money reigned supreme, showcasing the opulence associated with wealthy American families. The setting is reminiscent of Baden-Baden in Germany, known for its luxurious spas frequented by European elites. This hints at a merging of cultures as well as aspirations towards European sophistication within American high society. Overall, this print offers a glimpse into a bygone era where social class played a significant role in defining relationships and appearances. It serves as both an aesthetic delight and historical documentation of America's affluent past.
