EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print, we are transported back in time to ancient Greece in 1928. Two elegant women, dressed in flowing robes and sandals, browse the offerings at a perfume seller's stand. The male vendor presents them with a flask of scent, while a naked boy offers them a delicate flower. The scene is filled with beauty and sophistication, as captured by Art Deco master George Barbier. This Smithsonian-process color print is based on his work for Richard le Gallienne's "Romance of Perfume" published by Hudnut in New York. The image evokes the allure of antiquity and the artistry of the early 20th century. It showcases not only the fashion and style of ancient Greece but also highlights the importance placed on beauty and personal care throughout history. As we gaze upon this enchanting scene, we can almost imagine ourselves strolling through an ancient marketplace on a sunny summer day. The vibrant colors and intricate details transport us to another era, where merchants traded their wares under sunshades along sandy beaches. This print serves as both an exquisite piece of art and a window into history. It reminds us that even centuries ago, people sought out fragrances to enhance their natural beauty and indulged in luxurious scents just as we do today.
