EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the essence of a French chambriere, or chambermaid, during the reign of Charles VII in the 15th century. The woman, dressed in the traditional uniform of the time, stands proudly before the viewer with a sense of quiet dignity and composure. Her simple yet elegant attire, consisting of a high-necked blouse, full skirt, and apron, is adorned with intricate embroidery, reflecting the meticulous attention to detail that was expected of servants in the royal court. Charles VII, who ruled France from 1422 to 1461, presided over a period of great change and transformation in French history. The Hundred Years War with England had ended, and the country was beginning to recover economically and culturally. The court at Château de Vincennes, where this chambermaid may have worked, was a hub of artistic and intellectual activity, attracting scholars, artists, and writers from all over Europe. The role of a chambriere was an important one in the household, responsible for maintaining the personal quarters of the nobility and ensuring their comfort and cleanliness. The position required a high level of skill and dedication, as well as a strong work ethic and discretion. The chambermaid's duties ranged from laying tables and making beds to washing and ironing clothes, and she was often expected to be on call at all hours of the day and night. Despite the demanding nature of her work, the chambermaid in this print exudes a sense of grace and poise, her steady gaze and upright posture conveying a sense of pride in her role. The print serves as a poignant reminder of the vital role that servants played in the daily life of the French court during the Middle Ages, and the dignity and respect that was afforded to even the most humble of servants.
