Mistress Poiret Prepares Wistfully 1922
EDITORS COMMENTS
A poignant moment of longing and devotion is captured in this 1922 photograph entitled "Dog Left at Home." The image shows a small dog with expressive eyes gazing wistfully at its mistress as she prepares to leave the house. Dressed in an elegant Paul Poiret gown, the woman looks back at her loyal companion with a tender expression, her hands gently patting the air where the dog's head had been moments before. Paul Poiret was a renowned French fashion designer known for his innovative and extravagant creations. His designs, which often featured exotic and luxurious fabrics, were popular among the wealthy and fashionable elite of the time. The woman in the photograph embodies the glamour and sophistication of the era, yet her connection to her pet is evident in the depth of her gaze and the affectionate gesture she offers. The small dog, with its alert and hopeful expression, seems to understand that its mistress is about to depart, and the bond between them is palpable. The photograph captures a universal emotion experienced by many pet owners - the bittersweet feeling of leaving a cherished companion behind. The image is a poignant reminder of the deep connection between humans and their pets, and the enduring loyalty and love that exists between them. The photograph, taken over a century ago, remains a timeless testament to the special bond that exists between a woman, her dog, and the fashion of the day.
