EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph, created in the mid-19th century, showcases three figures from the late 16th century: a servant girl, a chambermaid, and a male and female peasant from Saumur. The intricately detailed image offers a glimpse into the daily lives of the French lower classes during this period. The servant girl, dressed in a simple yet elegant gown, wears a white apron adorned with red trim and a cap with a white veil. Her expression is demure and submissive, reflecting the humble nature of her role. The chambermaid, standing behind the servant girl, dons a more elaborate outfit, complete with a voluminous skirt, a lace-trimmed bodice, and a headdress adorned with a ribbon and feathers. Her attentive gaze is fixed on the servant girl, suggesting the hierarchical relationship between the two. The male and female peasants, dressed in traditional rural attire, stand to the side, their gazes directed towards the servant girl and chambermaid. The male peasant wears a simple tunic, a belt, and a hat, while the female peasant is dressed in a long, full skirt, a blouse, and a shawl. Their clothing is rough and unadorned, reflecting their simple way of life. This image, taken from the "Costumes Historiques de la France" portfolio by Paul Lacroix, offers a fascinating glimpse into the fashion and social structure of late 16th-century France. The meticulous attention to detail and the use of vibrant colors bring the figures to life, transporting us back in time to an era long past.
