EDITORS COMMENTS
"Step into the past with this image from 1913, showcasing the modern electrical devices that revolutionized the daily lives of women in the Edwardian era. In the foreground, a lady takes advantage of the convenience of an electric frying pan to cook her breakfast eggs, while a nurse heats water in an electric hot water cup for a baby's bottle and an iron, all in the same room. The electric heater on the wall also supplies hot water for a lady's afternoon social gathering, where a heated urn keeps the tea warm. In the background, a maid uses heated curling tongs to style her mistress's hair, adding a touch of glamour to her outfit. The electricity, channelled from the wall light fitting, made these labor-saving devices an essential part of domestic life, allowing women to save time and energy on household tasks. The scene is completed with a table laden with biscuits and other delicacies, adding to the cozy and inviting atmosphere of this Edwardian interior. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, capturing the essence of the 1910s and the transformative impact of technology on everyday life." (248 words)
