EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning Fashion Plate, created by Rudolph Ackermann in 1822, showcases the elegant and intricate details of a walking dress from the Regency era. The dress, which would have been worn for leisurely strolls in the park or promenades, is depicted in beautiful hand-tinted engraving on paper. The dress features a high waistline, full skirt, and long sleeves, all adorned with delicate floral patterns. The collar and cuffs are also adorned with ribbons and buttons, adding to the overall elegance of the design. The fashion plate also includes a bonnet with a large bow, a handbag, and a handheld parasol, all essential accessories for a lady of the time. The dress, bonnet, and accessories are all meticulously hand-colored, adding to the vibrant and detailed depiction. The lettering at the bottom of the plate reads "Rudolph Ackermann's Repository of Arts, Literature, Commerce, Manufactures, Fashions, and Politics," indicating that this was part of a larger publication. This fashion plate is a fascinating glimpse into the clothing and culture of the 19th century, both in Britain and America. It is a testament to the importance of fashion during this time and the role that fashion plates played in shaping and documenting trends. Today, this historic art piece is on display at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and intricacy of fashion from the past.
