Two Ladies Applying Their Make-up
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating painting by the Modern Painters, a group of artists who sought to challenge traditional artistic norms in the early 20th century. This evocative work of art, dated 1904, depicts two well-to-do ladies in an Edwardian boudoir, engaged in the meticulous process of preparing their faces for the evening. The mirror reflects the ladies' introspective expressions as they apply rouge to their cheeks and powder to their complexions. The table before them is adorned with an array of cosmetics and accessories, hinting at the time and care devoted to this ritual. The ladies' nightdresses, draped elegantly over their bodies, add to the sense of tranquility and privacy in the scene. John Ruskin, a renowned English art critic, once mused, "The greatest thing a human soul ever does in this world is to see something, and tell what it saw in a plain way. Hundreds of people can talk for one who can think, but thousands can think for one who can see. To see clearly is poetry, prophecy, and religion, all in one." This comparative quote by Ruskin serves to highlight the importance of observation and perception in art, as the Modern Painters masterfully capture the essence of this quiet moment between two ladies in their preparation for the night ahead. The painting invites the viewer to appreciate the simple beauty of the scene and the thoughtfulness behind the ladies' actions, offering a glimpse into the lives of women during the Edwardian era.
