EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures a moment of sweet indulgence between a graceful woman in a visiting outfit and a curious child. The woman, elegantly dressed in a black satin sheath dress with a wide-brimmed hat adorned with rose frills and a fur muff made of black silk with white trim, offers the child a selection of bonbons from the Comte du Plessis-Praslin. The bonbons, intricately designed and delicately arranged on a platter, add an air of opulence to the scene. The woman's outfit is reminiscent of the fashionable Toilette de Visite style popular during the Belle Epoque and Art Deco periods. The use of handcoloured pochoir (stencil) etching adds depth and vibrancy to the illustration by Armand Vallee, originally published in Tommaso Antongini's Journal des Dames et des Modes in 1913. The Orientalist influences and balletic poses of the era are reflected in the woman's flowing movements and the intricate patterns on her dress. The scene exudes a sense of Parisian chic and sophistication, with the woman's refined elegance contrasting beautifully with the playful innocence of the child. The image is a delightful snapshot of a bygone era, evoking memories of opulent visits, sweet treats, and the timeless charm of fashionable society.
