La coiffeuse (poirier noirci)

· June 1920

This hand-colored pochoir print depicts a fashionable hairdresser's salon display case, showcasing the tools and implements of the profession—combs, scissors, bowls, and ornamental bottles—arranged in a modernist interior with geometric black framing and a brass finial. Published in the luxury fashion journal, this image celebrates contemporary salon culture and the growing professionalization of beauty work in the 1920s. The print exemplifies the pochoir technique's precision and vibrant color application, a method that evolved from earlier printmaking traditions.
