EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century depicts a distressing consequence of fashion on women's health. The image showcases a tight garter causing varicose veins in the leg, shedding light on the detrimental effects of societal beauty standards. The German School artist skillfully captures the pain and discomfort experienced by countless women during that era. This print was originally created as an illustration for Anna Fischer's book "La Femme, Medecin du Foyer" around 1900, emphasizing its educational purpose. Varicose veins are portrayed here as a disorder or disease resulting from circulation issues caused by wearing constrictive garters. The intricate details highlight the medical implications associated with this common condition among females. As we gaze upon this historical artwork, it serves as a reminder of how society has evolved over time in terms of prioritizing both physical appearance and overall well-being. It prompts us to reflect on our own choices and their potential impact on our health. This particular print is part of a private collection but is made available through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform. Its presence not only preserves history but also educates viewers about past practices that may have had unintended consequences for individuals' health.
