EDITORS COMMENTS
In this exquisite handcoloured engraving from Pierre de la Mesanger's Le Bon Genre, we see a woman being pampered by her seamstress, clothes seller, hairdresser, and two chambermaids. The scene captures the opulence and luxury of 19th-century French society, where beauty and fashion were paramount.
As Montesquieu famously said, "For one man to live deliciously, one hundred others must work tirelessly." This sentiment is reflected in the image as we witness the laborious efforts of these women to ensure that their mistress looks perfect.
The intricate details of the engraving showcase the elaborate hairstyles, delicate lace trims on clothing, and ornate furniture that was characteristic of the time period. The woman gazes into a mirror as she is attended to with care and precision by her dedicated attendants.
This snapshot offers a glimpse into a world where indulgence and extravagance were commonplace for those who could afford it. It serves as a reminder of the unequal distribution of wealth and privilege that has existed throughout history.
Overall, this image invites us to reflect on notions of beauty, class distinctions, and societal norms that have shaped our understanding of luxury and labor.
