EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of intimacy and leisure as two women are depicted in a changing room at a swimming baths. The color lithograph, created by Ernst Heilemann in the early 20th century, showcases the fashion and societal norms of the time. The image portrays the women dressed in stockings, underwear, and swimsuits, highlighting the attire of that era. Their clothing choices reflect both practicality for swimming and an element of eroticism associated with belle epoque fashion. The vibrant colors used in this lithograph add to its allure and make it visually striking. The illustration is taken from "Die Berliner Pflanze" published in 1908 by Albert Langen. It offers us a glimpse into German society during this period, specifically within Berlin's swimming culture. Swimming was not only seen as a sport but also as a form of entertainment and leisure activity for individuals during their free time. This artwork provides valuable insight into early 20th-century Germany while showcasing Heilemann's talent as an illustrator. As we observe these two women preparing for their swim, we can't help but be transported back to that era where social customs dictated specific dress codes even within private spaces like changing rooms. Overall, this print serves as both an artistic representation and historical documentation of German society during the early 1900s.
