EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print captures the essence of the Feast of St Catherine, patron saint of clothing workers. Set in early 20th century Paris, a group of women can be seen joyfully celebrating on the bustling Rue de la Paix. The image beautifully illustrates the festivities that took place on St Catherine's Day, also known as Sainte Catherine, where young unmarried girls working in the clothing industry would come together to honor their patron saint. Dressed in colorful attire and adorned with traditional headdresses symbolizing their single status, these seamstresses and textile workers exude a sense of pride and camaraderie. Their faces radiate happiness as they revel in this special occasion dedicated to them. The significance of this celebration lies not only in its religious roots but also in its recognition of the hard work and dedication put forth by these women within the garment industry. It serves as a reminder that even amidst great tribulation, there is always room for rejoicing. Through this photo print, we are transported back in time to witness an enchanting moment when laborers transformed into jubilant partygoers. It encapsulates both French culture and history while paying homage to those who played an integral role in shaping it – from dressmakers to tradesmen – all united under the banner of St Catherine's feast day.
