Shop girls dressing in the morning. Four shop girls dressing, fixing their hair in front of mirror, adjusting their stockings, playing with a cat. "These little workers show such ingenious coquetry. They wear ordinary negliges, but have the art to add value to simple things." Handcoloured engraving from Pierre de la Mesangere's Le Bon Genre, Paris, 1817.
