EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the 18th century, offering a glimpse into the daily life of an aristocratic lady during her morning toilette. The image is taken from "Illustrierte Sittengeschichte Vom Mittelalter Bis Zur Gegenwart" by Eduard Fuchs, published in 1912. In this scene, we see the lady seated at her vanity table, surrounded by her entourage of attendants. Her ladies maid stands attentively beside her, ready to assist with any task required. A chambermaid can be seen in the background tidying up the room and ensuring everything is in order. The focus of attention though lies on the hairdresser who delicately works on styling the lady's elaborate coiffure. With skilled hands and precision, he carefully arranges each strand of hair into an intricate design that reflects both fashion and status. Meanwhile, a manservant waits patiently nearby holding various accessories such as ribbons or jewels that will adorn the lady's ensemble for the day ahead. This snapshot captures a moment of preparation and anticipation as our protagonist readies herself to face society. It serves as a reminder of how different daily routines were centuries ago compared to our modern lives today. Ken Welsh has masterfully preserved this historical image through his expertly crafted photo print, allowing us to appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also gain insight into past customs and traditions surrounding femininity and luxury.
