EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Makovsky's famous oil painting, "Hiring of a Maid" created between 1891-92. The artwork depicts a significant moment in history when the bourgeois middle class employed domestic servants to assist with household chores. In this scene, we are transported into an elegant dining room where a family is conducting an interview to hire a new maid. The employer sits at the head of the table, inspecting potential candidates while enjoying a pipe smoke. Meanwhile, children curiously observe the proceedings as they gather around a samovar, eagerly awaiting tea time. The composition beautifully captures the dynamics between employer and employee within this social setting. The meticulous attention to detail brings life to every element in the painting - from the intricate interior design of the dining room to each character's expression and posture. Makovsky was part of the Peredvizhniki group, known for their realistic portrayals of Russian society during that era. Through his brushstrokes, he not only documents historical customs but also sheds light on themes such as gender roles and social hierarchy. This remarkable piece can be found at eOdessa Fine Arts Museum in Ukraine and stands as a testament to Makovsky's talent as well as his contribution to art history.
