EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving from the 19th century showcases two distinct figures of French society during that time. On the left, we see an Eau de Cologne seller, his uniform representing his trade and expertise in fragrances. The vibrant colours bring to life the essence of his profession, as he stands proudly with bottles of cologne displayed on a wooden cart. On the right side of the print, we are introduced to a public writer immersed in his work. Dressed in traditional clothing, he sits at a small table with quill and inkwell in hand, ready to assist those who seek his services. His concentration is evident as he meticulously writes letters or documents for clients. Both men represent different aspects of French culture and societal roles during this era. The attention to detail in their attire highlights the importance placed on appearance and professionalism even within working-class occupations. This illustration was originally created for "Costumes Civils et Militaires des Francais à Travers Les Siècles" by Roy in 1881, showcasing various costumes worn by French citizens throughout history. It offers us a glimpse into everyday life during this period while also reminding us of the significance placed on fashion and personal presentation across all social classes.
