EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century showcases a scene of elegance and luxury. In this print titled "Pears Soap" we are transported back in time to witness an extraordinary event - Queen Charlotte's visit to Pears for soap, renowned for its complexion-enhancing properties. The image depicts a bustling street filled with people going about their daily activities. Sedan chairs, a popular mode of transportation during that era, line the streets as men and women stroll by. Amidst this lively atmosphere, we catch sight of Queen Charlotte herself seated comfortably in one of these sedan chairs. The advertisement for Pears Soap prominently features in the background, emphasizing its significance even during royal visits. The chair itself is exquisitely upholstered, symbolizing the opulence associated with such regal encounters. Children can also be seen in the image, adding an element of innocence and playfulness to the scene. Their presence serves as a reminder that Pears Soap was not only favored by royalty but also embraced by families across all social classes. This remarkable engraving captures a moment frozen in time - an encounter between British royalty and an iconic soap brand that has stood the test of time. It offers us a glimpse into history while highlighting the enduring appeal and influence of advertising on society.
