EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving, titled "Corset (1855)" takes us back to the 19th century and offers a glimpse into the world of femininity and fashion during that era. Published in 1883, this engraved image showcases a corset, an essential undergarment worn by women at the time. The profile view of the corset emphasizes its form-fitting nature, accentuating the curves of the female body. The intricate details captured through woodcut technique highlight both the craftsmanship involved in creating such garments and their significance in shaping women's bodies according to societal standards. As we delve into this ethnocultural history piece, we can appreciate how corsets were not merely functional but also served as symbols of beauty and elegance. This particular design features a tank top-like structure with delicate straps resembling a camisole or lingerie. Examining this historical artifact prompts reflection on how clothing has evolved over time while simultaneously shedding light on society's perception of beauty ideals throughout different eras. It serves as a reminder that fashion is not only about aesthetics but also reflects cultural norms and expectations placed upon individuals. "Corset (1855)" stands as a testament to our ever-changing relationship with clothing and provides valuable insights into past notions of femininity, highlighting both its empowering aspects and potential constraints imposed on women's bodies.
