EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving from 1798 showcases a captivating image of a woman in a kerchief-turban and tunic dress. The French School of the 18th century beautifully captures her elegant attire, which is adorned with intricate details. Her turban, scattered with spangles, sits at a rakish angle, adding an air of playfulness to her ensemble. The tunic dress she wears features gathered sleeves with two drawstrings and is cinched at the waist by a black velvet belt. This combination creates a flattering silhouette that accentuates her figure. The fichu-turban seme de paillettes adds further embellishment to her outfit while exuding sophistication. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this engraving. From the delicate folds in the fabric to the meticulous rendering of each accessory, such as the black velvet belt, no element has been overlooked. This illustration was originally featured in Pierre de la Mesangeres Journal des Modes et Dames in Paris during 1798. Volume 1 included contributions from renowned artists Carle Vernet, Claude Louis Desrais, and Philibert Louis Debucourt. As we gaze upon this print today, it offers us not only insight into fashion trends during this period but also serves as a reminder of the artistic talent that thrived amidst political turmoil like the French Revolution. It allows us to appreciate both history and beauty simultaneously through its exquisite craftsmanship.
