EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Il faut souffrir pour etre belle" transports us back to the 19th century, showcasing a scene from the French School's engraving. The image is extracted from the renowned "Album du bon ton" a collection of fashionable illustrations that epitomized elegance during that era. In this particular illustration, we witness a glimpse into the lengths women went through to achieve beauty. A stylishly dressed lady sits at her dressing table, surrounded by various tools and cosmetics. Her long, flowing hair cascades down as she endures the discomfort of having it styled by her dedicated barber. To add an extra touch of allure and height to her appearance, she balances on stilts while being attended to. This unconventional method demonstrates how beauty often requires sacrifice and suffering. The attention to detail in this artwork is remarkable; every strand of hair meticulously drawn, capturing both the pain and dedication involved in maintaining one's appearance during this time period. The image has been digitally cleaned for enhanced clarity while preserving its historical significance. Overall, this print serves as a reminder that throughout history, individuals have gone through great lengths in pursuit of beauty standards - enduring physical discomfort for aesthetic perfection.
