Album des peintres-graveurs: The Laundry Maid, 1896. Pierre Bonnard (French, 1867-1947), printed by Auguste Clot (French, 1858-1936), Ambroise Vollard (French, 1867-1939). image: 29 x 19.7 cm (11 7/16 x 7 3/4 in.); sheet: 45.4 x 33.7 cm (17 7/8 x 13 1/4 in.). This print depicts one of the many women and girls who worked in the Parisian laundry industry during the late 19th century. Carrying a basket that nearly matches her own size, a small silhouetted figure makes her way down an empty street, either picking up or dropping off clothes to a client. Bonnard represented the scene with minimal detail, portraying the laundress as a dark silhouette in stark contrast to the light cobblestones of the street on which she walks.
