EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite fashion and hairdressing trends that prevailed in Europe during the 16th century. Taken from Albert Charles August Racinet's renowned work, "The historical costume" this late 19th-century chromolithography offers a glimpse into the sartorial elegance of that era. In this image, we are transported back to a time when European style was characterized by opulence and grandeur. The intricate details of the costumes depicted here reveal the meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail that defined fashion during this period. From voluminous gowns adorned with elaborate embroidery to ornate headpieces embellished with jewels, every element exudes an air of sophistication. Equally mesmerizing is the artistry displayed in hairstyling. Elaborate updos, braids, and curls were meticulously arranged to complement the overall look. These hairstyles not only served as a means of self-expression but also reflected societal norms and status. Leonard de Selva's expert photography captures every nuance of Racinet's original artwork, allowing us to appreciate these historical costumes in all their glory. As we delve into this visual feast for our eyes, we can't help but marvel at how fashion has evolved over centuries while still drawing inspiration from its rich past. This print serves as a testament to both Racinet's artistic genius and Leonard de Selva's skillful lensmanship – transporting us through time and immersing us in the beauty of European fashion from centuries ago.
