EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph from the 19th century titled "Old trade: the modiste and her assistant" takes us back in time to witness a scene of daily life in Milan, Italy. The unknown artist skillfully captures the essence of this traditional profession through intricate details and vibrant colors. In this bustling street scene, we see a modiste, or hat maker, diligently at work with her young assistant by her side. They are surrounded by an array of hats displayed on stands, showcasing their craftsmanship and creativity. The modiste's focused expression reveals her dedication to perfecting each piece she creates. The lithograph not only highlights the artistry involved in hat making but also sheds light on the laborious nature of this occupation. It serves as a testament to women's contribution to various trades during that era when gender roles were more rigidly defined. Displayed at Palazzo Morando in Milano, Italy, this print offers viewers a glimpse into Italian history and culture. Through its depiction of daily life and delivery within the city streets, it provides insight into how commerce operated during that period. Luisa Ricciarini's expert restoration has preserved this remarkable artwork for generations to come. As we admire this lithograph today, we can appreciate both its aesthetic beauty and historical significance as it immortalizes an old trade that played an integral role in society long ago.
