EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration, titled "Weighing Baby," dates back to 1924, and it portrays a heartwarming moment at a clinic during the 1920s. The image showcases a mother cradling her newborn infant, as a doctor carefully weighs the baby using a traditional baby scale. The mother's expression is one of pride and joy, while the doctor's gaze is focused intently on the scale. The scene is surrounded by a bustling clinic, with other ladies and nurses attending to their duties in the background. The illustration is a beautiful representation of the 1920s, with its simple yet elegant style and attention to detail. The artist, Anon, masterfully captures the essence of this significant moment in a family's life, as the baby's weight is recorded for the very first time. This moment marks the beginning of the baby's journey into the world, and it serves as a reminder of the importance of health and well-being. The illustration is part of the Peter & Dawn Cope Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, and it offers a glimpse into the past, providing us with a window into the everyday lives of people during the 1920s. This image is not only a historical document but also a poignant reminder of the universal experience of bringing a new life into the world and the joy and excitement that comes with it.
