EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage postcard from ca. 1940 captures the essence of relaxation and longing in a single image. Titled "When the Day is Done, and My Work is Through, I Relax for Awhile, and Dream of You" it transports us to a bygone era of glamour and sensuality. The photograph features a stunning blond woman reclining on a luxurious chaise lounge. Her curly hair cascades down her shoulders as she exudes an air of seduction. Dressed in exquisite lingerie – garter, bra, panties – she epitomizes elegance and desire. With one leg raised slightly, adorned with thigh-high stockings and lace hosiery, she strikes a pose that oozes sex appeal. Holding a cigarette holder delicately between her fingers while enjoying a smoke adds an element of sophistication to the scene. This postcard represents not only an artistic portrayal but also serves as an emblematic symbol of femininity during this period. The design showcases meticulous attention to detail with its stylish clothing choices and alluring posture. Printed by the renowned Curt Teich Company using offset lithography techniques, this piece exemplifies exceptional commercial artistry prevalent at that time. As we gaze upon this image today, it evokes nostalgia for an era when dreams were woven into everyday life's fabric. It reminds us that even after long days filled with work and responsibilities, moments of relaxation allow our minds to wander towards those we hold dear - just like the woman in this enchanting postcard who dreams of her beloved when night falls.
