EDITORS COMMENTS
This comical illustration captures the amusing scene of "The Dressing Of The Attorneys Clerk" based on a satirical work by Carle Vernet. Published in Paris in 1875 as part of the XVIII Siecle Institutions, Usages Et Costumes collection, this print showcases the humorous preparation process of a French attorney's clerk from the 18th century. In this whimsical depiction, we see a gentlemanly assistant meticulously powdering his master's wig while surrounded by a cloud of cosmetic dust. With exaggerated gestures and expressions, the man is fully engrossed in his task, adding an element of lightheartedness to the image. The attention to detail in this artwork is remarkable; every aspect reflects the fashion and customs prevalent during that era. From the elegant attire worn by both characters to their refined surroundings, it transports us back to 18th-century France. Ken Welsh's skillful reproduction brings out all these nuances with precision and finesse. His interpretation not only highlights Vernet's original satire but also adds depth and character to each element within the composition. Whether you're an art enthusiast or simply seeking some light-hearted entertainment, this print offers a delightful glimpse into historical humor and serves as a reminder that even serious professions can have moments of levity.
