EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the late 18th century in England, showcasing a remarkable artifact known as the Baby Feeder. Crafted from pewter, this bubby pot served as an essential tool for infant nourishment during that era. The baby feeder was ingeniously designed to hold liquid food or pap, typically consisting of a mixture of milk, bread, flour, and sugar. Through the teat attached to the pot, infants could effortlessly suckle on this supplementary sustenance while being breastfed. The historical significance of this antique piece lies not only in its functionality but also in its representation of nurturing practices prevalent at the time. In an age where scientific advancements were limited compared to today's standards, such tools played a vital role in ensuring proper nutrition for growing infants. Against a delightful peach background that adds warmth and charm to the image, we are transported into an English nursery from the 1700s. This photograph serves as a window into our past and invites contemplation on how child-rearing techniques have evolved over centuries. Preserved by Science Photo Library with utmost care and attention to detail, this print allows us to appreciate both the craftsmanship behind this eighteenth-century marvel and its place within history. It stands as a testament to human ingenuity when faced with challenges related to infant feeding during times long gone by.
