EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black and white lithograph, we are transported back in time to the year 1928. Standing proudly in the doorway is an elderly French lavatoire attendant, a figure that exudes both authority and weariness. The illustration comes from Anita Loos' renowned novel "But Gentlemen Marry Brunettes" which takes us on a journey through the lives of two glamorous women. The attendant's expression tells a story of his long-standing role as caretaker of this public space. His grumpy countenance hints at countless conversations and arguments he has witnessed within these walls. As he leans against the doorframe, his robust figure suggests years spent tending to hygiene matters with unwavering dedication. This image offers a glimpse into an era when cleanliness was highly valued but often taken for granted. The attendant's presence reminds us of the importance placed on maintaining proper sanitation even in public spaces such as toilets or lavatories. Through this print, we are reminded that history can be found not only in grand events but also in everyday scenes like this one. It serves as a testament to the unsung heroes who diligently carried out their duties behind closed doors, ensuring our comfort and well-being without expecting recognition or praise. With its timeless quality and attention to detail, this lithograph captures both the essence of early 20th-century France and the universal human experience of those who work tirelessly behind-the-scenes.
