EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a man in his fashionable attire during the 19th century. Dressed in a loose fitting coat made of grey cloth with a luxurious velvet collar, he exudes an air of elegance and sophistication. His pink-and-white check waistcoat adds a touch of playfulness to his ensemble, while his hazelnut-colored trousers and soft boots complete the look. The handcolored lithograph by E. Bracquet beautifully brings out the intricate details of this fashion plate, originally illustrated by Francois-Claudius Compte-Calix for Les Modes Parisienne sous le Directoire. This post-revolutionary era marked a significant shift in French fashion, influenced by the Napoleonic period and the aftermath of the French Revolution. The man is seen holding a walking stick and wearing a stylish hat, further enhancing his dapper appearance. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this illustration – from the texture of the fabric to the subtle shading on each garment. This print offers us a glimpse into early 19th-century France, showcasing not only the evolving trends but also highlighting how clothing was used as an expression of one's social status and personal style. It serves as both an artistic representation and historical documentation that continues to captivate viewers today.
