EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage illustration captures a moment of domesticity in the early 20th century. Titled "Maid Selecting Clothes for Her Mistress, 1920" this screen print showcases the role of a maid in an upper-class household. The image depicts a uniformed maid standing in a lavishly decorated bedroom, carefully selecting clothes from a wardrobe closet for her mistress. The attention to detail is evident as the maid delicately holds up undergarments and dresses, showcasing her dedication to ensuring her mistress looks impeccable. The apron she wears signifies her status as a servant, while also highlighting the contrast between social classes within the confines of this manor house. This artwork offers us insight into the dynamics and hierarchy present within households during that era. It serves as a reminder of how gender roles were deeply ingrained at that time, with women often relying on maids to assist them with their daily routines. As we gaze upon this scene frozen in time, we are transported back to an era where personal style was meticulously curated by those who had access to such luxuries. This screen print not only celebrates the artistry behind its creation but also invites us to reflect on societal norms and class distinctions prevalent during that period.
