EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "BARBER SHOP, 19th CENTURY" takes us back in time to a rainy day in America during the late 19th century. The illustration, originally featured in an American newspaper, showcases a sporty barbershop bustling with activity. The scene is filled with intriguing details that reflect the era's charm and diversity. A group of men, both African American and Caucasian, are seated comfortably on chairs while getting their haircuts or shaves from skilled barbers. The interior of the shop exudes nostalgia with its classic decor - from the top hats and bowler hats hanging on hooks to the staircase leading upstairs. Amidst all this commotion, a mischievous feline companion playfully observes from atop a chair as a bootblack diligently shines shoes nearby. The atmosphere is further enlivened by spilled cream and bottles scattered around, adding an element of slapstick humor to the scene. As rain pours outside, customers seek shelter under umbrellas while waiting for their turn or engaging in lively conversations over newspapers like the Police Gazette. The barbers' impeccable workmanship ensures each customer leaves with a perfect haircut and smile on their face. This remarkable artwork captures not only the essence of barber shops during that era but also serves as a testament to cultural integration within these spaces where people from different backgrounds came together for grooming services and camaraderie.
