EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from the series "les Metiers" published by Jean Leblond I in the early 17th century. Created by Abraham Bosse, this etching showcases the artistry and craftsmanship of the time. In this particular image, we are transported to an opulent interior adorned with tapestries and paintings. A four-poster bed takes center stage while a barber tends to his customer's mustache. With great precision, he curls the gentleman's facial hair using heated curling tongs, as his assistant stands nearby. The attention to detail is remarkable, not only in capturing the intricate process of styling but also in depicting elements of society life during that era. The ornate frame surrounding the etching further emphasizes its significance as a work of art. Through this image, we catch a glimpse into an intimate moment within a trade that has stood the test of time - barbering. It serves as a reminder that professions have evolved over centuries yet continue to play vital roles in our lives today. With its rich historical context and exquisite execution, this artwork invites us to appreciate both the skillful hands behind it and the cultural nuances it represents.
