EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "ARKANSAS: HOT SPRINGS, 1878" takes us back in time to witness a unique scene on Hot Springs Mountain. In this image, we see a group of impoverished bathers indulging in the therapeutic waters of the corn hole. These men, representing the indigent population of Arkansas during that era, find solace and relief from their daily struggles by soaking their weary feet in this natural thermal spring. The engraving beautifully captures the essence of late 19th-century life in the South East. The subjects' expressions reveal both physical discomfort and a sense of tranquility as they immerse themselves in these healing waters. With canes resting nearby, it is evident that some may be invalids seeking respite from ailments. Hot Springs was known for its spa-like qualities even then, attracting visitors from all walks of life. However, this particular image sheds light on those who were unable to afford full-body bathing experiences but still found comfort within their means. Through this historical snapshot preserved by The Granger Collection's artistry, we gain insight into daily life at Hot Springs Mountain over a century ago. It serves as a reminder that amidst poverty and hardship, people sought moments of relaxation and rejuvenation – finding solace even in humble foot soaks at nature's own spa.
