EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print, titled "The exit of the midinettes (before 1907)", artist Theophile Alexandre Steinlen takes us back in time to early 20th century France. The scene depicts a group of young women known as midinettes, who were working-class seamstresses or dressmakers in Paris during that era. Steinlen's masterful use of charcoal and pastel on paper brings these vibrant characters to life. Their joyful expressions and animated gestures suggest a sense of camaraderie and friendship among them. Dressed in traditional French attire with collars adorning their necks, they exude both elegance and youthfulness. The drawing captures a moment of leisure for these hardworking laborers as they take their well-deserved break from work. It offers a glimpse into the lives of these young women, showcasing not only their dedication to their craft but also their ability to find joy amidst the challenges they faced. Displayed at the Musee des Beaux-Arts de la Ville de Paris, PeuPalais, this artwork by Steinlen is an exquisite representation of early 20th-century artistry. Through his skilled hand, he immortalizes the spirit and vitality of these midinettes while providing us with a window into a bygone era filled with beauty and resilience. Photographed by Sylvain Collet, this image serves as a reminder that art has the power to transport us across time and space, allowing us to appreciate the rich history behind
