VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This black and white illustration depicts a scene set in 1837, titled "Chez la Lingère, " which translates to "At the Lingerie Shop. " It is from "La Vie Parisienne, " suggesting that it captures an aspect of Parisian life during that era. The image shows two women: one standing and being fitted for an elaborate dress by another woman who is kneeling. The standing woman wears a wide-brimmed hat adorned with feathers, a corseted bodice, puffed sleeves, and a full skirt lifted to reveal layers of petticoats and stockings held up by garters. The kneeling woman appears to be adjusting or commenting on the length of the dress or undergarments. Her expression seems focused on her task while she holds onto the fabric of the garment. She is dressed in simpler attire compared to her client's extravagant outfit but still reflects period-appropriate fashion with her own full-sleeved blouse and voluminous skirt. A caption below reads "Trop. . . ? Peut-être un peu court!" which suggests some playful dialogue about the length of the clothing—this can be translated as "Too. . . ? Maybe a bit short!" Overall, this illustration gives us insight into fashion sensibilities and social interactions among women in mid-19th century France within an intimate setting related to personal attire.
