EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in time from the 19th century, titled "La Toilette d un clerc de procureur". The image showcases a well-dressed clerk of a prosecutor's office engaged in his morning grooming routine. The scene unfolds within an elegant room, adorned with a large window that allows soft light to filter through. A set of stairs adds depth to the composition, hinting at the grandeur of this clerical space. The clerk himself stands before a mirror, meticulously attending to his appearance. With one hand delicately holding onto his wig and the other applying talcum powder or perhaps adjusting his hairpiece, he epitomizes the meticulousness required for such formal roles during that era. A barber's tools can be seen on display nearby, emphasizing the importance placed on personal grooming. This engraving was originally created as an illustration for Le Magasin Pittoresque in 1864 and has been digitally cleaned for optimal clarity. It now resides within a private collection but is made accessible through Bridgeman Images' fine art finder. Through this evocative print, we are transported back in time to witness not only the physical transformation taking place but also gain insight into societal norms and expectations surrounding appearances during this period.
