EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a lingerie maker's workshop in exquisite detail. Taken from the Encyclopedie des Sciences et Metiers by Denis Diderot, this engraving dating back to around 1770 provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of French lingerie craftsmanship during the 18th century. The image showcases an array of materials and tools used by these skilled artisans. Delicate fabrics, carefully selected for their quality and texture, are displayed alongside intricate diagrams that serve as blueprints for creating beautiful undergarments. The meticulous attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this workspace, reflecting the dedication and expertise required to produce such intimate garments. As we delve deeper into this snapshot of history, we gain insight into the artistry behind tailoring women's underwear. It serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, fashion played a significant role in shaping society's perception of femininity and sensuality. This particular print belongs to The Stapleton Collection and is part of Bridgeman Images' extensive catalogue. Its timeless appeal lies not only in its historical significance but also in its ability to spark curiosity about past traditions while celebrating the craftsmanship that continues to shape our modern understanding of beauty and style.
