1885 Coffee Housemaids Journal Maidservant Master Petit Servants Serves Serving Sits


EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures a moment of quiet intimacy between a maidservant and her master in the tranquil setting of a garden in 1885. The maidservant, dressed in the traditional uniform of a housemaid, carefully balances a tray laden with a steaming pot of coffee and two cups, her expression focused and attentive. Her master, dressed in the formal attire of the time, sits comfortably in a garden chair, engrossed in the pages of Le Petit Journal, oblivious to the world around him. The scene is one of subtle power dynamics and class distinctions, with the maidservant attending to her master's every need, while he indulges in the pleasures of reading and relaxation. The garden setting adds to the sense of peace and serenity, with the lush greenery and dappled sunlight creating a idyllic atmosphere. This photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of the upper classes in the late 19th century, and the role of the servant in maintaining their comfort and dignity. It also highlights the importance of leisure and the enjoyment of simple pleasures, such as a cup of coffee in the company of a good newspaper. Overall, this image is a beautiful and poignant reminder of a bygone era, and the intricate relationships that existed between the classes during this time.
