EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing handcoloured engraving from Pierre de la Mesanger's Le Bon Genre, Paris, 1817, we are transported to a scene of subtle rivalry and sly glances. The image captures two young women assisting older women with baby bonnets and false bosoms, all while exchanging knowing looks with the viewer.
The caption reveals that the younger women, aged 19 and 20, are engaged in an "open war" with women of a certain age (30). They defiantly adopt fashions that suit only them - flat bonnets and childish caps - showcasing their rebellious spirit against societal norms.
This artwork is not just a simple depiction of fashion trends; it delves deeper into themes of beauty standards, coquetry, and social hierarchy. The contrast between the youthful exuberance of the younger women and the more mature elegance of their counterparts creates a dynamic tension within the composition.
As we gaze upon this print, we are invited to ponder on notions of femininity, ageism, and individuality. The intricate details and expressive faces draw us into a world where appearances can be deceiving and alliances can shift in an instant. Truly a thought-provoking piece that continues to resonate with contemporary audiences.
