EDITORS COMMENTS
or "Getting Up," is an exquisite 18th century artwork by Jean Massard, created in 1771. This beautiful black and white etching and engraving depicts a young woman in a bedroom, delicately getting ready for the day. The scene takes place in a French country house, with the woman's bedchamber adorned with intricate decorative elements, including a canopy bed, a dressing table with a mirror, and a fireplace. The woman, dressed in a long nightgown, is in the process of putting on her clothes, with her maid, depicted in the background, holding out a robe and a pair of shoes. The artist, Jean Massard, masterfully captures the intimacy and quiet elegance of this moment in time, as the young woman prepares to face a new day. This evocative image, with its timeless charm and historic significance, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the 18th century. It is currently on display at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., where it continues to captivate and inspire visitors from around the world. The intricate details of the etching and engraving, from the delicate folds of the woman's nightgown to the ornate decorative elements in the room, invite closer inspection and reveal new layers of meaning and beauty with each viewing. This historic artwork, with its enduring appeal and timeless charm, is a must-see for anyone with an appreciation for the art and culture of the past.
