EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back in time to witness a peculiar yet intimate scene from the personal life of a young woman. Titled "A Woman Catching Fleas by Candlelight" this neoclassical painting, found in the esteemed collection of Nationalmuseum Stockholm, offers us a glimpse into an ordinary weekday evening in 18th-century Sweden. The setting is a dimly lit bedroom illuminated solely by the warm glow of candlelight. A lady sits on the edge of her bed, engrossed in her task at hand - catching fleas. With delicate precision and determination, she delicately plucks these tiny pests from her negligee while holding up her garment for closer inspection. This genre scene painted by Pehr Hillestrom captures not only the meticulousness required to combat such nuisances but also reveals aspects of personal hygiene and health during that era. The fine art image beautifully portrays the young woman's concentration as she attends to this mundane yet necessary chore. Through this artwork, we are reminded that even within our most private spaces and daily routines lie stories waiting to be discovered. It serves as a reminder that history can be found not only in grand events but also within seemingly insignificant moments like catching fleas by candlelight.
