The bored women of Longchamp racetrack

The Bored Women of Longchamp Racetrack
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating hand-colored engraving from Pierre de la Mesngere's "Le Bon Genre," published in Paris in 1817. The image depicts three elegantly dressed women, their expressions conveying a sense of ennui and restlessness, as they sit amongst a towering pile of chairs. A maid in the background is busy clearing away the discarded seats, adding to the women's sense of isolation. The women's fashionable attire, complete with high-waisted Empire silhouettes, intricate hairstyles reminiscent of choir children, and ornate bonnets, shawls, and lorgnettes, underscores the opulence and extravagance of the racetrack scene. The women's bored expressions and the empty chairs suggest that the rain has kept the crowd away, leaving them without the opportunity for social interaction and engagement. The satirical tone of the print is evident in the exaggerated expressions of the women and the maid's determined clearing of the chairs. The image offers a glimpse into the lifestyle of the fashionable elite during the early 19th century, where entertainment and socializing were integral aspects of high society. The print also highlights the importance of fashion and appearance, as the women's attire and hairstyles were symbols of their wealth and status. Overall, "The Bored Women of Longchamp Racetrack" is a fascinating snapshot of fashion, lifestyle, and social dynamics during the Regency era.
