PICTURES OF PARISIAN LIFE: A WEDDING PARTY IN THE BOIS DE BOULOGNE; A FORMIDABLE REVOLUTION is reported from Paris, the abandonment of false hair. This innovation is due to a clique of youthful brides of this year, who, objecting to their heads being used as mere hairdressers blocks, and desirous to show their natural capillary advantages without over ornament or exaggeration, have begun a crusade against falsities, and wear their own hair in as simple a fashion as possible. Maried ladies of long standing, jealous of the success thus attained by their younger sisters, are fast following suit, and we may hopefully look forward to the time when the present unsightly edifices of false hair shall be replaced by natural shapely heads

EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print from the Liszt Collection transports us back to Parisian life in a bygone era. The image captures a lively wedding party amidst the enchanting surroundings of Bois de Boulogne. However, it is not just the joyous celebration that catches our attention but also the revolutionary trend taking place within this gathering. The caption informs us about an extraordinary shift in fashion - the abandonment of false hair. A group of youthful brides has spearheaded this movement, rejecting elaborate hairstyles and opting instead for simplicity and their own natural beauty. No longer content with being mere "hairdresser blocks" these women are determined to showcase their capillary advantages without any exaggeration or ornamentation. What makes this revolution even more remarkable is its influence on married ladies who have been inspired by their younger counterparts' success. Jealousy fuels their desire to follow suit, leading us to hope for a future where unsightly edifices of false hair will be replaced by elegant and shapely heads adorned only with genuine locks. As we admire this engraved image, we appreciate not only its historical significance but also its illustrative technique that beautifully captures the essence of Victorian arts and culture. This retro-styled photograph serves as a testament to an era when style was evolving, boundaries were being challenged, and individuality triumphed over conformity.
