The Barber
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Jean Leclerc is a captivating colour lithograph that takes us back to the 17th century, offering a glimpse into the world of grooming and personal care during that era. This exquisite print, now housed in the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France, showcases Leclerc's exceptional artistic talent and attention to detail. The image depicts a barber meticulously attending to his client's beard with utmost precision. The vibrant colours used in this lithograph bring life to every aspect of the scene - from the richly patterned wallpaper adorning the walls to the intricate tools of his trade displayed on a nearby table. Leclerc masterfully captures not only the physical act of shaving but also conveys an atmosphere filled with anticipation and relaxation. The client appears at ease as he entrusts himself to his skilled barber's hands, while other patrons patiently wait their turn in this bustling barbershop. This artwork serves as a reminder of how personal grooming has always been an essential part of human culture throughout history. It invites us to appreciate both the artistry involved in such everyday rituals and their significance within society. "The Barber" is truly a remarkable piece that transports viewers back in time while simultaneously reminding us of our timeless pursuit for self-care and presentation.
