EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "MFC-A-004650-0004" we are transported back to the late 19th century, around 1890. The image beautifully captures a young woman seated in front of a mirror, her long hair being meticulously dressed by a skilled hairdresser. This intimate scene highlights the importance placed on personal grooming and hygiene during that era. Hairdressing was not merely an aesthetic practice but also served as a form of self-care and beauty treatment for individuals. It encompassed both physiological and psychological aspects, enhancing one's appearance while boosting their confidence. The presence of the hairdresser adds depth to the photograph, shedding light on their work and vocation within society at that time. Their expertise in combing or dressing hair played an essential role in helping individuals achieve desired styles and maintain proper grooming standards. While focusing primarily on the young woman's portrait, this image subtly hints at broader social conditions prevalent during that period. The simplicity of her surroundings suggests she may belong to a lower socioeconomic class or be affected by poverty. Through Esposito A. 's lens, we catch a glimpse into society's dynamics - where scenes like these were common yet often overlooked amidst larger societal issues and politics. As we admire this historical photograph from Alinari, it serves as a reminder of how individual moments can offer valuable insights into our past - showcasing not only personal stories but also reflecting wider cultural norms and values beyond what meets the eye.
