EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, dating back to the year 1793, showcases a vibrant scene of German men and women from the Hesse region. The image is a testament to the fashion and societal norms of the time, providing a glimpse into the lives of people during the late 18th century. In the foreground, a regal royal postilion, dressed in his traditional attire, stands proudly next to his horse. The postilion, an essential figure in the transportation industry, wears a red jacket, white breeches, and a black waistcoat, accentuated by a white cravat and a tricorn hat adorned with a gold band. His boots are adorned with silver spurs, adding to his distinguished appearance. Behind the postilion, a Field Postmaster, identifiable by his uniform, engages in conversation with a group of women. The Postmaster, wearing a bicorne hat, a blue coat with silver buttons, and white breeches, carries a cane and a satchel slung over his shoulder. His uniform signifies his position as a postal official, responsible for delivering mail and maintaining communication networks. The women in the image are dressed in the fashionable attire of the 1790s. They wear long, flowing blue dresses, accessorized with shawls and mob caps. The hats, known as bicorns or tricorns, are a popular accessory for both men and women during this era. The women's dresses are adorned with intricate patterns and designs, reflecting the attention to detail and craftsmanship of the time. This print offers a unique glimpse into the fashion, societal norms, and daily life of German men and women during the late 18th century. The image is a valuable historical document, providing insight into a bygone era and offering a connection to the past.
