EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing 19th-century colour engraving, we witness a peculiar scene that combines both humour and curiosity. A man on stilts stands tall beside a woman who is seated at her dressing table, desperately twisting her hair with great vigor. The unknown artist skillfully captures the essence of this moment, leaving us to wonder about the story behind it. As we observe closely, the woman's expression reveals a mixture of pain and discomfort as she gazes into the mirror. What could be causing such distress? Is it possible that her elaborate hairstyle has become an unexpected challenge? Or perhaps there is more to this interaction between the man on stilts and the woman than meets the eye? The contrast between their sizes adds an element of whimsy to this composition. It seems as though the man on stilts has taken it upon himself to lend a helping hand in styling her hair – but why? Could he be an eccentric character offering his unique services or simply trying to bring some laughter into her life? This engraving invites us into a world where imagination reigns supreme. With its vibrant colours and intricate details, it sparks our curiosity while reminding us not to take ourselves too seriously. As we delve deeper into its narrative, we are left pondering what other surprises may lie within these artistic strokes from centuries past.
