EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Jean Edouard Dargent's masterpiece, "Les Lavandieres de la Nuit (The Washerwomen of the Night)" painted around 1861. The oil on canvas painting measures 73x49 cm and is housed in the Musee des Beaux-Arts in Quimper, France. In this hauntingly beautiful artwork, Dargent brings to life a local Breton legend. The washerwomen depicted here were said to possess an eerie power: if they caught a man spying on them during their nocturnal laundry rituals, they would force him to wring out their washing and then break his arms as punishment. This chilling narrative adds an element of terror and mystery to the scene. Dargent's symbolic approach and skillful use of light create a ghostly atmosphere that sends shivers down one's spine. The spectral figures of these washerwomen emerge from the darkness like ethereal beings, evoking both fascination and fear. Their haggard appearance lends credence to the old wives' tale surrounding their supernatural abilities. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing image, we are transported into Brittany's rich folklore tradition. It serves as a reminder that even within seemingly mundane activities such as washing clothes by moonlight, there can exist hidden depths of darkness and ancient tales waiting to be discovered.
