EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from 1879 captures a glimpse of society in Alsace, Germany during the late 19th century. The region was under the control of the German Reichstag from 1871 to 1918, and this image provides a window into the lives of women living there at that time. The unknown artist has skillfully depicted a group of women in traditional clothing, showcasing the unique cultural identity of Alsace. Their attire reflects both practicality and elegance, hinting at their daily routines and social status within their community. As we study this engraving, we are transported back in time to witness a moment frozen in history. The details captured by the artist offer valuable insights into the customs and traditions of this region during a period marked by significant political changes. Through this image, we can appreciate not only the beauty of Alsace's landscape but also gain a deeper understanding of its people and their way of life.
