EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print, titled "Woman at her toilette" by Paul Lacroix, we are transported back to 18th-century France. The scene depicts a woman in the morning, engrossed in her daily routine of dressing and grooming. Her elaborate costume reflects the fashion trends of the time, with intricate details adorning every inch. The interior setting is opulent, featuring a grand fireplace and elegant furniture. A large mirror dominates the room, reflecting both the woman's image and her occupation as she meticulously arranges her hair. A servant stands nearby, ready to assist with any needs. Cosmetics and make-up tools are scattered across a beautifully crafted mantelpiece. This glimpse into a lady's private space reveals not only her dedication to beauty but also highlights the importance placed on appearance during this era. This engraving captures not just an individual moment but also offers us insight into French society at that time. It serves as a reminder of how professions like hairdressing were valued occupations for women during this period. Paul Lacroix skillfully brings together elements from both the 18th and 19th centuries in his work, creating an exquisite representation of life in France during these times. As we gaze upon this print, we can't help but be captivated by its timeless elegance and historical significance.
