EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Ladies Of Leisure" takes us back to the year 1813, showcasing a scene of domestic bliss. The image captures a group of well-to-do women from good families contentedly engaging in activities that were considered appropriate for their social status during that era. In this charming tableau, we see these ladies engrossed in their embroidery work and playing music on various instruments. A harp takes center stage, its elegant strings resonating with sweet melodies. Surrounding them is an atmosphere of tranquility as they immerse themselves in their hobbies. Adding to the charm of the scene is a delightful baby nestled among these accomplished women, reminding us of the circle of life and nurturing that was central to family dynamics at the time. A loyal dog lies faithfully by their side, symbolizing companionship and loyalty. The composition beautifully captures both female and male figures coming together in harmony within this intimate setting. Each individual's posture exudes grace and poise while reflecting the societal expectations placed upon them. This exquisite print by Rischgitz offers a glimpse into a bygone era where leisurely pursuits such as embroidery and music-making were cherished pastimes for privileged women. It serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of domestic life, highlighting not only artistic endeavors but also familial bonds shared between humans and animals alike.
