EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century showcases a scene that epitomizes the changing times and societal norms. Titled "A Fashionable Female Faro Bank" it offers a glimpse into the world of gambling amongst ladies during this era. The image, part of a private collection, was originally published in The Days Doings on May 6,1871. Intriguingly, the print captures an elegant woman presiding over a faro bank table with utmost style and sophistication. Surrounded by other fashionable ladies engrossed in their bets and drinks, she exudes confidence as she oversees the game. The furniture is tastefully upholstered, reflecting the opulence of its setting. The image serves as both a social commentary and an insight into fashion trends of that time. It hints at how women were breaking free from traditional roles and embracing activities typically associated with men. This depiction challenges stereotypes while showcasing the evolving nature of society. Bridgeman Images has beautifully preserved this piece through Fine Art Finder, allowing us to appreciate not only its artistic value but also its historical significance. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are transported back to an era where fashion intertwined with gambling among high-class women – truly capturing what we are coming to in terms of shifting societal dynamics.
