EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century transports us to a quaint village in Auvergne, France. The scene depicts a Coupeur de cheveux, or hairdresser, diligently at work amidst the rustic charm of this idyllic setting. With precision and skill, he tends to the tresses of his clients, showcasing the artistry and craftsmanship that defined his trade. The image is part of an illustration for Les Principales Decouvertes et Inventions by A Bitard, published in Megard in 1888. It offers a glimpse into the world of scientific discovery and invention during this era. As we observe this historical moment frozen in time, we are reminded of the significance these inventors held within society. Intriguingly, scattered around the hairdresser are various wigs and hairpieces - perhaps indicating their popularity among women seeking fashionable transformations. This detail adds depth to our understanding of both French culture and fashion trends prevalent during that period. Digitally cleaned for enhanced clarity while preserving its authenticity, this print allows us to appreciate not only its artistic value but also its historical importance. Through it all shines an undeniable sense of pride in French ingenuity and creativity. As we delve into this enchanting artwork captured by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, let us marvel at how a simple depiction can transport us back through time – reminding us that history is not just about dates but also about human stories woven together with threads of innovation and beauty
