EDITORS COMMENTS
This colour lithograph, titled "Woman performing her toilette with the help of her maid" offers a glimpse into the intimate world of a woman's daily routine in early 20th century Germany. Created by Paul Rieth, this illustration was featured in Elegante Welt magazine in 1912. The image showcases a beautifully dressed woman seated at her vanity table, surrounded by an array of beauty products and accessories. Her maid stands attentively behind her, assisting with various tasks to ensure the lady looks her best. The mirror reflects their reflection as they engage in this private ritual. The Belle Époque ambiance is evident through the elegant decor and furnishings of the bathroom. This scene captures not only personal grooming but also highlights societal norms and class distinctions during that era. The use of vibrant colours adds depth and richness to the artwork, enhancing its visual appeal. The attention to detail is remarkable, from the intricate patterns on clothing to the delicate features on both women's faces. This print serves as a reminder of how personal care routines have evolved over time while shedding light on gender roles within households during this period. It invites us to contemplate notions of femininity, domesticity, and social dynamics prevalent in early 20th-century Europe. With its historical significance and artistic finesse, this lithograph provides viewers with an intriguing window into a bygone era – one filled with elegance, gracefulness, and meticulous attention to appearance.
