EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print titled "Tactus (the Touch), 18th Century" takes us back to a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the lives of women in the 18th century. The artwork, created by Abraham Bosse and featured in Eduard Fuchs' book "Die Frau in der Karikatur" showcases the artist's talent for caricature and satire. In this scene, we see a seated woman dressed in an elaborate Dutch costume, accompanied by her lover. The couple is engaged in an intimate moment as they share a tender touch. The maid standing nearby adds an element of secrecy to their encounter. The artist skillfully captures the essence of love and desire through his intricate engravings. Every detail, from the couple's expressions to their clothing, speaks volumes about societal norms and expectations during that time period. This piece not only serves as a historical record but also highlights the influence of fashion on society at large. It offers insight into how people expressed themselves through dress and how it played a role in shaping relationships. As we gaze upon this lithograph print, we are transported back to 18th-century Europe—a time when art served as both entertainment and social commentary. It reminds us that even centuries later, human emotions remain timeless and universal across cultures.
