EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming handcoloured engraving, titled 'Children Building a House of Cards on a Table' from Pierre de la Mesngere's Le Bon Genre, published in Paris in 1817, captures the innocence and playfulness of childhood in the early 19th century. The image depicts a group of children intently focused on constructing a house of cards on a long, wooden table. The girls wear mid-calf length dresses, their frilly petticoats visible beneath, allowing them the freedom to run and play while maintaining their modesty. The boys, dressed in pantalons and shirts, display influences from Turkish and Polish fashion with their high collars and loose-fitting tops. The satirical publication, Le Bon Genre, was known for its humorous and critical commentary on societal norms, making this image a delightful representation of childhood during this era. The intricate details of the children's clothing and the whimsical expression on their faces make this print a captivating addition to any collection of historical imagery.
