This engraving from the 17th century provides a glimpse into the world of women's employment during that time. The intricate details and skilled craftsmanship showcase the various roles and professions that women held in society, challenging traditional gender norms.
From working as seamstresses and maids to running businesses and managing households, these women were integral to the economy and workforce of their era. Despite facing numerous challenges and limitations based on their gender, they displayed resilience, determination, and ingenuity in pursuing their careers.
The image captures the essence of hard work, dedication, and empowerment as these women navigate through different tasks with grace and poise. It serves as a reminder of the significant contributions made by women throughout history in shaping industries, communities, and cultures.
