Original Le Bon Genre Hand Etched Print Series With Water Color No. 103

In an effort to explain Le Bon Genre to any potential bidders, we would like to take a dive into the exciting history of these pieces. Le Bon Genre translates from French to "the right kind". Le Bon Genre was one of the earliest series of prints to record the social trends & leisure activities of contemporary Parisian in the early 1800s.

This piece depicts a woman being pampered by her seamstress, her clothes seller, her hairdresser and two chambermaids. As Montesquieu said, "For one man to live deliciously, one hundred others must work tirelessly."

Consistent with age and use.
