EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a woman in a striped dress with a kerchief shawl, dating back to 1797. The handcoloured copperplate engraving showcases the exquisite fashion of the time. The woman is adorned in a round bonnet with a small crown, elegantly fixed with black velvet. Her dress is made of striped silk or Pekin fabric, while she gracefully drapes a kerchief-shawl over her shoulders. The attention to detail in this artwork is remarkable; every stroke and color choice brings life to the image. This particular piece was featured in Pierre de la Mesangeres Journal des Modes et Dames, Paris, during the late 18th century. Renowned artists Carle Vernet, Claude Louis Desrais, and Philibert Louis Debucourt contributed their talents to create these stunning illustrations. As we admire this print today, it offers us glimpses into the Directoire period amidst the French Revolution. It reflects both royalist and republican influences from that era. The combination of historical significance and artistic brilliance makes this piece truly captivating. Bridgeman Images has preserved this masterpiece for our enjoyment through Fine Art Finder.
