EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Young Washerwoman" captures a poignant moment in history, transporting us back to the late 19th century. The image showcases a young girl diligently engaged in her domestic chore as a washerwoman. With an apron tied around her waist and an iron in hand, she stands amidst piles of laundry, showcasing the demanding nature of her job. The artist, Camille Felix Bellanger, masterfully brings out the beauty and strength of this working-class woman through his skillful use of color lithography. The vibrant hues add depth and life to the scene, highlighting both the harshness and dignity associated with such laborious work. As we gaze upon this print from L'Estampe Moderne - a renowned publication from Paris between 1897-99 - we are reminded of the essential role that women like our young protagonist played in society during that era. Their dedication and hard work were crucial for maintaining cleanliness and orderliness within households. This particular piece is part of The Stapleton Collection housed in a private collection today. It serves as a powerful reminder not only of our shared past but also pays homage to those unsung heroes who tirelessly worked behind-the-scenes to keep their communities running smoothly. Through this evocative engraving by Bellanger, we gain insight into an often-overlooked aspect of history while appreciating the artistic brilliance that has preserved it for generations to come.
