We know she didn't have a job outside the home because women in those days didn't. Her house was always a pig sty, as mozarts father pointed out. And she hired a cleaning lady. clearly, she was no homemaker. What did she do? Sit and twiddle her thumbs all day?
shareShe didn't hire the maid; an "anonymous" patron of Mozart's sent the maid to spy on him.
In real life, Mozart's wife was an opera singer, but in the movie, who knows what she did all day...
Essentially, yes. Women of a certain standing were not allowed to work all over Europe. Their purpose was to produce children, run the household which was usually really done by servants, be a fetching piece of decoration on her husband's arm at social events and entertain her husband's guests. That and constant wardrobe changes for morning, noon, tea, dinner and any social events they might attend,
shareOne of the "minor" historical omissions of many in this movie. Constanze was almost continuously pregnant during her marriage to Mozart. She was quite physically exhausted by this, and there were no funds to hire help. She had six children in nine years.

nine children in six years ?
man! Mozart must have been a f@#~king machine (literal adjective).
I mean he must have f"ยท$ed her even while pregnant, hence hurting the fetus' brain with his penis while doing the old "in-out"
Do you have reversal problems (as well as being a pig)?

ahha didn't know that. wow that's a lot of shaggin' !!!
shareIn that day and age, and into the 1800s, women of middle and upper class who had servants to do the work usually didn't rise early, so by the time they got up and dressed and had breakfast, it was mid-to-late morning. Letters were the standard form of communication in those days, so mornings were often spent writing to family and friends. Early afternoons were spent "making calls on" (visiting) other people.
I've always been more confounded by what did Alice (The Honeymooners) do all day in that tiny apartment with no place to sit except the kitchen table. She didn't work and it couldn't have taken much effort to tidy up two rooms.
