EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the 16th century, immersing us in the world of a barber and wigmaker. Created by H Moulin in 1849, this Swiss stained glass artwork now resides in the esteemed Musee de Cluny in Paris. The vibrant colors bring life to this scene, showcasing the intricate details of both male and female hairdressers diligently at work. The image captures a bustling barbershop filled with people seeking their desired hairstyles or wigs. It offers a glimpse into an era where hairdressing was not only an occupation but also an art form. The skilled hands of these professionals meticulously craft each hairstyle, reflecting the fashion trends and cultural norms of that time. In this snapshot from history, we witness men and women equally engaged in their respective roles within society. The barbershop serves as a hub for social interaction and personal grooming needs, making it an integral part of daily life during the sixteenth century. As we admire this remarkable piece from Paul Lacroix's publication "Le Moyen Age et la Renaissance" we are reminded of how professions evolve over centuries while still retaining their essence. This print is not just a visual delight; it encapsulates the concept of craftsmanship passed down through generations. Let us cherish this window into our past—a testament to human ingenuity and creativity—where even mundane tasks like hairdressing can become works of art worthy of admiration for centuries to come.
