Antique Print of Women drinking Coffee

About the Item

The print is titled "Kaffeestündchen," which translates from German to "Coffee Hour" or "Coffee Break." It was published in 1905 after a painting by Friedrich Wahle, who was an artist active around the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The scene depicted is a common social setting of that period, showing women engaged in a leisurely coffee hour, which was a popular social activity, especially among the middle and upper classes in European society. Such gatherings were not just for enjoying coffee but also for socializing and discussing a range of topics from the personal to the political. Friedrich Wahle's work often captures such intimate, everyday scenes with a focus on the social habits of his time. His paintings are typically characterized by their detailed rendering of people, careful attention to the interplay of light and shadow, and a certain warmth that invites viewers into the scene. This particular print likely served as a decorative piece, reflecting the cultural practices of the era and perhaps even idealizing the social life of women at the time. The attire of the women, with elaborate hats and dresses, suggests a certain class and the setting itself, a café or similar establishment, which was a gathering place for such activities. The print serves as a historical window into the social customs and fashions of the early 20th century.
