This print by Nicholas Arnoult depicts a woman of quality seated in a chair with a maid arranging her elaborate hair. The scene, typical of French Rococo art, captures a moment of leisurely elegance and personal grooming. The woman's intricate hairstyle and opulent clothing are hallmarks of high fashion in the late 17th century. The print, created in 1688, reflects the popularity of this genre during the period and provides valuable insight into the customs and aesthetics of the era.
