EDITORS COMMENTS
Preparations for a Ball in a Merchant House, Mid-19th Century" is an intriguing and humorous oil on canvas painting from the collection of the State V. Tropinin Museum in Moscow. Anonymous is the creator of this genre scene, which offers a satirical glimpse into the elaborate preparations for a ball in a merchant house during the mid-19th century in Russia. The painting depicts a chaotic scene of women in various stages of dressing for the upcoming ball. In the foreground, a lady in a voluminous crinoline gown, complete with a hoop skirt and a large, ornate hat, is adjusting her dress while her maid holds up a mirror. Another woman, dressed in a frock with a crinoline, is in the process of putting on her shoes, while yet another is trying on a hat. The scene is further enlivened by the presence of a grotesque caricature of a man, peering in from the window, presumably to catch a glimpse of the ladies preparing for the ball. His exaggerated features and disheveled appearance add a touch of humor to the painting. The women's attire is a testament to the fashion trends of the time, with their crinolines and hoop skirts taking center stage. The painting captures the stylish elegance of the era, as well as the extravagance and excess that often accompanied such social events. Despite the satirical tone, the painting also serves as a valuable historical record of the fashion and social customs of the time. The intricate details of the women's dresses, the accessories they wear, and the furnishings in the background all contribute to a rich and authentic portrayal of life in a merchant house during the mid-19th century in Russia. Overall, "Preparations for a Ball in a Merchant House, Mid-19th Century" is a delightful and engaging work of art that offers a glimpse into the past, while also providing a humorous commentary on the frivolities of high society.
