Morning toilet and bath 178O, two sets

(double series) around 1780


Morning toilet: Our series shows: Sitting in front of her dressing table, the lady of the house has her hair done by her hairdresser. A good friend secretly slips her a gallant letter - unnoticed by her reading husband. Engraving: Mohr.


The house bathroom:
Our series shows: A distinguished lady has just stepped out of her perfume-scented bathwater. Her maid hands the bathing dress to the mistress. Separated from this jewel of creation only by a screen, her spiritual director, the young Abbé, chatted with her. Engraving: Mohr. Belonging to the cultural history of the bath.
Engraving by Franz Karl Mohr.
