EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning "Fashion Plate (Promenade Dress)" from the year 1816. Created by Rudolph Ackermann, a renowned British artist and publisher, this hand-coloured engraving on paper captures the essence of fashion in the early 19th century. The image depicts an elegant woman dressed in an Empire gown, which was characteristic of the Regency era. The dress features a high empire line that accentuates her figure while exuding grace and sophistication. Her ensemble is completed with a fashionable pelisse coat, adding warmth and style to her attire during outdoor promenades. Every detail has been meticulously engraved and coloured by hand, showcasing Ackermann's exceptional artistic skills. From the intricate patterns on her dress to the delicate folds of fabric, this artwork truly brings history to life. The woman carries a stylish handbag as she strolls through the countryside, epitomizing both practicality and fashion-forwardness. Her hat adds another layer of elegance to her ensemble, completing her fashionable look for any occasion. This photograph print is part of Los Angeles County Museum of Art's collection (LACMA), representing their dedication to preserving historical artifacts that reflect our rich heritage. It serves as a reminder of how clothing can be seen as art itself - not only functional but also visually striking. With its vibrant colours and attention to detail, this "Fashion Plate (Promenade Dress)" transports us back in time to experience the glamour and beauty of Georgian-era fashion. It is indeed an exquisite piece that celebrates women's wear from centuries past while inspiring contemporary designers with its timeless allure.
