EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Konstantin Yegorovich Makovsky's masterpiece, "La repasseuse - Femme repassant" (Woman Ironing). Painted around 1900, this oil on canvas artwork is a prime example of Russian art from the late 19th to early 20th century. The painting can be found at the State Open Air Museum in Rostov Kremlin, Rostov, Russia. Makovsky beautifully captures a moment of domesticity and introspection in this scene. A woman is depicted ironing with an old-fashioned iron appliance while wearing an apron. Her face reflects a sense of sadness and deep thought as she engages in her daily household task. The artist skillfully uses color to evoke the ambiance of the Belle Époque era. The warm tones create a cozy atmosphere within the dwelling where this woman resides. Through his brushstrokes, Makovsky brings attention to every detail, particularly emphasizing the texture of linen being pressed under the hot iron. This image not only portrays a simple act of work but also invites us to contemplate deeper emotions and thoughts that may occupy one's mind during such tasks. It serves as a poignant reminder of women's roles within society during that time period and their often unspoken burdens. Bridgeman Images has expertly captured this significant piece from Fine Art Finder, allowing viewers worldwide to appreciate Makovsky's talent and delve into the rich history behind this remarkable artwork.
