EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back to the 19th century, capturing a moment in time at the Exhibition of Hair Dressing at the Pavilion in Brighton. The image showcases a bustling scene filled with hairdressers meticulously working on intricate coiffures, while visitors eagerly inspect their artistry. The focus of attention seems to be a woman wearing an exquisite Marie Antoinette-style wig, adorned with feathers and ribbons. Her elaborate hairstyle is reminiscent of the opulence and grandeur associated with the French court during Louis XV's reign. Nearby, another hairdresser proudly displays his skill by presenting a Gainsborough hat beautifully styled atop a mannequin head. The setting itself is equally impressive - the Royal Pavilion in Brighton provides an elegant backdrop for this exhibition. Its distinctive architecture adds to the sense of occasion and glamour surrounding this event. As we delve into this historical snapshot, it becomes apparent that hairdressing was not merely about personal grooming but also an art form worthy of public display. This exhibition offered both professionals and enthusiasts alike an opportunity to showcase their talent and creativity. Through this engraving, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand how hairstyles were transformed into works of art. It serves as a reminder that even seemingly mundane aspects of life can hold great cultural significance when viewed through the lens of history.
