EDITORS COMMENTS
In the Cabinet des Estampes, Bibliotheque Nationale, the search for bygone fashions, 1897 (colour litho) captures a captivating glimpse into the world of fashion in Paris during the late 19th century. This exquisite print, created by Francois Courboin, showcases a group of women engrossed in their research within the prestigious library. The image transports us to a time when fashion was not just about clothing but also an expression of one's social status and identity. The Parisian ladies depicted here are seen meticulously examining historical garments and accessories, as they seek inspiration from past styles to inform their own fashionable choices. This artwork originally served as an illustration for Octave Uzanne's book "Fashion in Paris" published in 1901. It beautifully encapsulates Uzanne's exploration of how fashion evolves over time while paying homage to its rich history. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring life to this scene, allowing us to imagine ourselves amidst these elegant women immersed in their quest for sartorial knowledge. Through this print, we are reminded that fashion is not merely superficial; it is a reflection of culture and society at large. As we admire this piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we can't help but marvel at how timeless style truly is – forever evolving yet always rooted in our collective past.
