EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing photograph from 1893, a charming conversation unfolds between a widowed English socialite, Mrs. Willson-Blobbs, and a French Count, in the elegant setting of a Parisian hotel. Mrs. Willson-Blobbs, dressed in a stylish gown and holding a fan, extends an invitation to the Count, who sits confusingly holding multiple fans. The Count, with a quizzical expression, asks for clarification, "Oh, sank you very much - vat nombare?" (Oh, thank you very much - what number?). The scene exudes an air of confusion and lightheartedness as the two engage in their conversation. The backdrop of the ornate settee and the ornate decor of the hotel room further emphasizes the opulence of the era. Mrs. Willson-Blobbs, a widow of a wealthy pork butcher from England, was likely traveling in Europe for the social season. The Count, a French nobleman, was likely also in Paris for business or pleasure. The exchange between them highlights the cultural differences and language barriers that could arise during international social interactions during this time period. This photograph, taken in Paris in 1893, is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the historical context of international social interactions during the late 19th century. The image is rich in detail, from the intricate patterns on the Count's waistcoat to the delicate folds of Mrs. Willson-Blobbs' gown, making it a captivating addition to any historical collection.
