EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time from the early 20th century Parisian streets, as a group of midinettes, or shop girls, bravely navigate the rain-soaked cobblestones while delivering purchases to their customers. Dressed in their smart uniforms and carrying umbrellas, they embody the resilience and determination of working women during this era. The scene transports us back to a bygone age, when shopping was a social occasion and personal connections played a significant role in business transactions. The photograph, titled "Delivering 1902," is a poignant reminder of the everyday lives of Parisians during this period. The century-old image invites us to imagine the bustling streets of Paris, filled with the sounds of horse-drawn carriages, the aroma of freshly baked bread wafting from nearby bakeries, and the chatter of shoppers and vendors. As we gaze at this historical tableau, we are struck by the sense of community and camaraderie among the midinettes. Their shared experience of braving the rain and delivering their wares to their customers creates a bond that transcends the passage of time. This photograph is not only a visual record of a specific moment in history but also a testament to the enduring spirit of women and their role in the social and economic fabric of Parisian society. The photograph, from Mary Evans Picture Library, is a valuable addition to any collection that seeks to explore the history of Paris, women's history, or the evolution of shopping culture. Its rich detail and evocative imagery transport us to a time when the simple act of delivering purchases was an essential part of the social fabric of Parisian life.
